Jaytee did a sick job. smooth finish and they look sexy. chill guy.
I'll post some pics up soon once i get my new Canon Rebel
yo Jaytee, my buddy will most likely be hitting you up in a couple weeks to paint some stock mazda 3 wheels. he just needs to find a set to cruise on for a little while they are getting painted.
Thanks again man,
Kevin

Just tossing this out there... I've got a set of stock 17" alloys on my tC.
Have you ever considered being able to increase your customer base by offering something like a "core exchange".... similar to what some autoparts stores do? Where the customer pays in full up front, and then gets a "core charge fee" returned to them once they ship their stock parts to you.
I don't know if you're looking at expanding into doing something like that. But I've seen nothing but good things about your quality of work and as a good seller of your services here on SL.
If were interested in doing something like that, I'd have you do the set of wheels for my tC in a heartbeat.
Keep up the good work man.

Im going to have to outsource the 9.5 wheels since they are too big for my sandblast cabinet.... Hes looking around 260
And for everyone out there, I think my thread might get shut down. I guess I need to become a vendor to continue, Im going to look into this but if I cannot justify the money I might have to call it quits on scionlife

Do you have a list or chart of the colors/finishes that you can do on wheels? and also... any pics of different finishes you've done on stock tC 17 alloys?

So it would be cost for that type of powdercoating finish on OEM wheels, and what you would request as a core fee. (assuming the set you have are in good condition as well.) Oh, and your zip code so I could estimate shipping costs too, that would be great.
Thanks in advance for your time.

Thanks... I'll check out that site. So any they carry you can do? And are there different compositions of the material itself in the different powders they sell (other than the color pigment) that you feel work better than others?
Checked it out.... I still like that bronze/copper candy you did on that motorcycle wheel earlier in this thread.. but I really like that Blue Ice Explosion. but just can't quite picture how that would look on a SCM color tC.
