These guys have been doing our powder coats for a good few years now, anything metal related we bring to them. For wheels, they will only do 1pc wheels though as multi piece wheels require actual wheel professionals to take a part and reassemble.

Dynopro Coatings Ltd
135-1711 Valmont Way, Richmond, BC V6V 1Y3
(604) 278-2611

Talk to Terry.

so your saying they can't do multi piece rims then? darn.. Any other shops in mind? Cause I have a 2 piece, but I just want the center powder coated.

How is the quality of work?

i was actually planing to give nu-brite a call and see what they say. They fixed a curb on my rims before and did a good job. Im just worried about the accuracy of the color, since I want a very specific color

I'm visiting Green's Automotive for pothole damage next week so I'll ask when I'm there. Maybe see some examples of their work

edit: Pretty sure it's gonna be more expensive than nu-brite though. They're kind of over priced..

Having used greens, panther and nu-brite in the past, I'd say nu-brite did the best job. I've got a couple of friends that say the same thing.

Try rainbows in coquitlam. I got a set powder Coated there. It was 40 bucks per wheel for paint and 50per wheel for sandblast. I spent 360 total and the wheels look awesome.
