Yes it is not cheap. I planned about $400. But if you want a good job you must pay more. Several body shops quoted me prices. And those cheaper prices are not powder coated. So one rock chip will start your whole wheel flaking away. They had to apply many coats of paint. Then put it in the oven. Take it out, wait for drying. Then recoat. Reheat. etc.. Also pearl white is a two stage paint. So it takes longer. This shop only does wheels. Not a body shop.
