Powder coating?

anyone know a place to get wheels powder coated?

i have a set of chrome rims that I want to get a darker shade 'black chrome' to take some of the shine away.

Not sure if they do that.

Is this for the M Roadster wheels? Those would look awesome in the smoked coating that's on the e39 M5 wheels.

Great plan. I've always loved the M Roadster. My dad and I test drove one at Oktoberfest '98 in Orlando, but we're both 6'6" so it looked like one of the cars in the Life board game with two pegs in the front seats.

Paul,
Let me know how it turns out, I might need to do some of my wheels too.
I will let you test places out for me first. :-)
