might be the same guy, but there's a guy on the corvette forums.... i think his id is "corvette pilot"... he takes care of a lot of the vette powdercoating needs.... i've heard only great things about him... plan on taking my brake calipers to him soon.

Have any of you powdercoated 2-piece wheels before?

I am wondering if there is going to be a fitment issue when I go to put the centers and lips back together. I know powdercoat is thick and I have no desire to have wheel issues when at the track going flat out.

I want to powdercoat the lip and the center piece black.

They usually have it the next day for me, and small jobs are often free.

I had some 18" BBS's done by them that ran $400, so I guess that was big enough of a purchase to justify a bunch of small things for free. Plus the small stuff was black, so they just toss it in with something that was going to be done black, and it doesn't take hardly any powder.
