Powder coating

Has anyone powder-coated their wheels? Mine are chrome right now but I'm wanting to get them done in black. Just wondering how it holds up

They can also powder coat in black chrome now. Really cool lookin but they may want to spray them hot to help get the powder flowing out nice.

lol 03chevybaja, that would be sooo sweeeet!! But I had my H2's done about 4 months ago and they still look just as awesome as they did the day they were done. Highly reccomend. Cheaper than buying $1200 in wheels anyday.
