I'm siing it as one of the options.

Got couple of cuestions:
How much weight will it add to 17' rims?
Is it going to be shiny (as on picutre)? I'd prefer matt.
How much?

I can do matte finish......... it cost $250 for a set of rims........ just make sure all the weights, tires and valve stems have been removed........

The rims or anything metal, like strut bars etc. will be bead blasted and ionized so that the powder will stick to it and then it's baked on at 350 - 400 degrees where the pwoder will melt and glaze over the rim.

I have never seen a finish go bad from rock chips........ just don't curb the rim.
