Default POWDER COATING group buy

POWDER COATING group buy

i am trying to see if we can get people interested in powder coating .. if we can get 6ppl+ group buy, the discount pricing is $270per set of wheels
all sets have to be done within a week***One week only Sept 14-21***

colored lip/strip on the outside of the wheel is avail for extra $85.

all powder coating has one year warranty which covers chipping/pealing paint defects only. this does not apply to any curb rash or other damage due to mounting



some of the basic colors :

-gloss black
-flat black
-white
-gold
-bronze
-gun metal
-red
-orange
-green
-blue
-purple
-anything else you want-just PM/post up to make sure it is not a special color that would be extra price





if you are thinking that you'll just save money and spray paint your wheels instead... im telling from experience that its not worth it. Paint will chip because it is not as strong as powder coat. I've had painted wheels before and im never doing it again bc they had to be repainted every season after they got destroyed by salt in winter. When i got my wheels powder coated i've never had any scratches/chips on them.



PUT YOUR NAME ON THE LIST ONLY IF YOU ARE 100% SURE. $50 deposit will be required BY SEPT 1st so that we dont have people backing out last minute.

Stop by there with one wheel.

I took measurements and went through our catlog.

Three boxes could be used: S-4696, S-4543, S-4468.

I work at the corporate HQs in Chicago area and I know for sure at our Illinois branch. If a customer walks in, explains they need certain size box. Customer service is pretty much helpful by getting samples.

Hell, we've been known to give free samples to customers.

the pinstripe (lip) is avail in different color, it will be extra cost. I'll know later today/tomorrow how much it'll be

and as far as out of state ppl, it came down to me having to take care of shipping and picking up the wheels which i dont really wanna do. . . plus the shipping would probably make it not worth it at the end
