I'm going to subscribe to this thread, as I'm curious too... if there isn't a response in a few days, then I'll call around to some friends at shops and get their recommendations (if they have any).

Ye Old Wheel Shop off of Route 100 did a FANTASTIC job on my bro's Volks..they repaired bends and painted them Porsche Arctic silver...thousands of miles later they look fantastic. The rims easily match or exceed volk OEM quality now.

Another place is eastcoastpowdercoat.com.

How much do they cost for powdercoating?

BTW, rebending/shaping wheels actually weakens them, so they'll be more susceptable to bending in the future...

You are right, but they do as good a job as is possible...but what else can you do for discontinued rims? Tons of porsche, benz, and exotic owners trust Ye Old Wheel Shop..so I'm sure they are good. I don't know if they do powdercoating, painting runs $90-100/wheel.

Ye Old Wheel shop. I have 19" Se7en's for my Audi but they said they couldn't match the gunmetal color and that they would have to do all the wheels so take that into account. I ended finding paint at a r/c model store but if I ever bend them jokers I'm definately taking them back there. I've heard nothing but good things about them.
