black iforged--LOT of PICS
instead of selling them i decided to get them powdercoated black by wheeltechnologies.com...they did a pretty good job...i also have 1 brand new rear wheel from iforged (dont ask why)
all i can say is that the quality seemed to have improved greatly

Nice and in the process you saved yourself a pretty penny by keeping them. You said they did a pretty good job. Why was it just pretty good? Lastly how much and how long did it take?

thanks
19x8 19x10...turnaround time is like 2-3 days..not bad at all..costs 125 per wheel and that includes fixing any bends and unmounting and remount and balance tires AND shipping back to you
and ye i need a better camera...but the blurry pic is on purpose..thought it looked kinda cool
my only gripe is that they didnt repolish the lips so nicely..otherwise very good

hehe..i have been asked many times...and each time i give the same answer
in short- in order to NOT be surprised with hidden fees you must expect to pay 1600-2200 to get this kit on your car PERFECTLY
im not sure how much they charge for crappy jobs
there are no replica esprit's out there that have perfect fitment AND perfect fiberglass surface
a little of both is your best luck....its all worth it though

yeah the kit really comes in like ****! but my friend is doing it all for me and is coming out perfect! but yeah he was gonna hook me up with 300 to mold it, piant it, install it. but after all the repairs and extra stuff needed it was a lil bit more, but still very worth it in the long run!
btw- who did u buy ur kit from?

CA should have a lot of places nearby
i sent mine to dallas...im sure i coulda found another place but someone on this forum used them and said they were good
$125 per rim is a flat rate...so if your rims dont need any fixing then you should look elswhere cause you could get powdercoating job done for cheaper
yes i had to ship to them and then wait for it to come back
