    After many pm's from the other thread about this I have pulled my post here to respect the other member. Please feel free to pm and I can give you a price. That price is very similar until you get into the 19"plus wheels.
    Cost based on size and type of paint/coating on wheels.

    You will receive your wheels back wrapped in a plastic bag. I will not touch the fresh surface with my hands or anything that may leave a residue. That will leave them perfect for a powdercoater or painter.

    Here are some pics of my wheels.

    Could be a stupid question, but... Do you do painting, too, or would we need to go to someone else for that?

    I can do anything but for some things I need to see the stuff first. Sand is money in this racket.

    what type of media are you using? (because your not really blasting sand)
    and how big is you cabinet?

    I need a trunk done, and our cabinet is too small.

    thanks for asking, well the person that I got it from, left it outside,
    so the inside of the truck has started to rust.
    I have welded the wing/keyholes/logo holes,
    and I'm installing a JDM rear center piece. (says Legacy instead of Subaru)
    which needs some fiberglass work.

    so to remove the rust and blue pant, I alread have three hours in sanding it.
    (and I don't want to hand sand the inside)

    I use the silica sand and I rent the cabinet from a guy. It can fit a hood standing up in it.
