Default Powder Coating My Wheels

Hello,

I am new to the forum and an excited owner of a new 2006 RR HSE. I have previously owned a 97 AA Yellow Defender 90 and also currently own a 1991 RR Classic. I love Land Rovers.

Any way, I saw the previous post about painting the 16" allows. Well, I would like to have black rims/wheels on my new Range Rover, nothing fancy but rather some more rugged looking.

Any advice on changing the stock 19" rim to matte black? I have heard that powder coating works. However, I am completely unfamiliar with that. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Best,

Mickey

A little pricey to do but well worth it for the results.
You can get different textures, and colors. The wheels will be sand blasted first to insure a good even surface.

Default Re: Powdercoating

Hey Mike,

About how much does it cost? What if I just bought black rims rather than powder coating my existing stock RR rims?

Finally, can you give me some tips on powdercoating --- where is best to get it done? What kind of paint? instructions to give the painter, etc.

Thanks,

Mickey
