Painting 19" Rays

jaytwitch · 12-06-2013, 02:15 AM

I want to get my rays, door handles and calipers painted. Has anyone done this, any recommendations on my idea. Wheels and handles black and calipers yellow :O.. All of these would have to b powder coated right? Also maybe a rough estimate? Thanks

You CAN paint the calipers, wheels and door handles. Your calipers, wheels, and door handles are currently painted.

People powder coat because it's more durable.
People paint because it takes more heat and you can color match easier

Door handles - $100~
Wheels - powder coat/paint depends on how anal you want it to be. I went to bare metal with my rays. But expect to pay $300-400
Calipers - Mike charges... $250-300? If you wanted them painted, about the same, just make sure you find someone who does high temp paint

Plastidip everything and it'll cost you $30 bucks in materials.
