In search of painting and powder coating help

So I am searching for a new motorcycle this year (2003-2005 Honda RC-51) and I want to paint the bike flat black with a flat red racing stripe down the center. I am also looking to get the wheels powder coated flat red if possible.

does anyone have any recommendations for a local painter and/or powder coating company that is reasonable and good??

Can you even powder coat in flat colors? I wouldnt expect a motorcycle paint job to cost that much since I will be bringing in all of the plastics and tank already taken off the bike and all of the oem stickers removed.

Thanks.

 

Friend's trying to get a GP on powercoating wheels here (don't think they'd include red, but maybe wortha shot?)

I know someone with a poweder coating setup whos out in Delano. I can give him a ring if you would like to see about the wheels. do the wheels have tires on them? dismounting will cost more.

 

I plan on removing the tires and valve stems and whatever i need to so they are all ready to PC

 

+1 for this guy....I helped build one of Kris's more recent (he might have something else now....I don't remember) oven setups. he does good work, and has been doing it for a few years. I know he's done a bunch of flat black on a few different sets of wheels. I doubt he's got any flat red, but can get pretty much anything.

he also has a sweeeeet sandblasting setup, so can strip the wheels down to bare metal very effectively.

 

Twin City Powdercoating did good work on my wheels. They had about a zillion different colors and textures to choose from.

 

or a concrete wall down to nothing for that matter lol
