Well there's a catch...my dad knows the previous owner. When my dad took it in, the current owner said it would be $150. Honestly, I'm counting on a hefty discount. Haha.

150 isnt that bad i guess. there saying 300 for a set of rims

Is that bad? I'm assuming they sand blast it to clean it. |
Sand blasting, grinding, sanding, whatever. As long as the surface is clean.
|
For $150 it better look damn nice...no word on a discount yet!
|
Wrong!!!!!!!
What about a phosphate conversion coating on the ferrous parts? Powder Coating is not a miracle cure-all. It is just a coating system, it still needs proper prep! Research grasshoppers! research! |
