Paint is much easier. With powder coat you have to remove the bearings, and replace with new ones. Plus since you're leaving the amber the oven would probably kill the amber anyway. | ||

what kind of paint have you used? How does it hold up? | ||

I painted my wheels. I had them done at a friend's body shop (Silverbullet on the BadWeb). He used an acrylic paint with a special hard clear coat to resist chips. So far so good ~9k miles since they were done. He just taped them off and sprayed. Ditto what Glitch said about the bearings and cost.    |
