Default How much to paint these wheels envy Green?

I want to paint these wheels envy green to go on my RS 3.0 . Only where the black is now on the wheel. How much do you think that would run? and where in Los Angeles area would you recommend having this done?

no one? I don't want to paint the whole wheel only where it is black. I just want a ballpark figure in price at least. Another thing is. I have taken things in to be color matched to a car, the wing on my wifes lancer and the license plate frame on my moms TC and both times the body shops acted like I was on crack that I wanted them to paint it. Just this? Thats all? Like I was the only oneon earth that has requests like this.

obviously we can't tell you how much.
different shops have different prices.

all you got to do is bring that wheel
to different shops and get quotes from them.

they're gonna do it, not us.

One of our sponsers paints wheels and I think it'll be around 250-350 to paint them envy green. I my self want to paint my rims as my Envy Green box but can't seem to find an autmotive paint supply store near me. Oh need the paint for my Charge Speed kit too!
If interested let me know and I'll get you a better price! PM me!

I think that would look really nice too, $200 aint that bad! If you get me a pic looking straight at the rims and a side pic of your box, I can photoshop it for you so you can see how it will look.

coool, I was actually going to paint everything that was black on the wheel not just the center, but I think I am going to go with another wheel , Because like I said I was going to paint everything green that was black and on that wheel it would be a lot of green and I want a brushed or polished aluminum lip on it I have decided, so I think I am going to go with this. And paint everything on this that is black envy green

Oh, sorry, I thought you wanted just the centers. If you find me a good pic of those I can photoshop those also.
