I found these guys advertising on Kijiji. Just thought I would share for those interested.
Emerald Coatings offers quality custom powder coating for your automotive parts

I like the name, and I want these rims:



At least I think they're rims...LOL!

 

I've spoke with these guys before. Their prices for some pieces are pretty good, but they are out to lunch on wheels.

Their oven isn't very big either so some parts they can't do, they seem to be pretty cool guys and have done work on a lot of different cars. If a bunch of people wanna get their plenums done maybe we can get some group pricing.

 

If you guys want a group buy on powdercoating, I know someone who owns a powdercoating shop in Burlington. I can see if he'd be interested and how much it'd be.

 

I did an internet search on my business name (Emerald Coatings) and happend to come accross this site. I just wanted a chance to defend my prices on wheels. When I quote (which I am still fairly new to) my price includes stripping the old coating off, media blasting it to clean metal, doing a phosphate coating for better corrosion resistance, powder coating the colour of choice, and powder coating a clear coat. Although some places don't offer a clear and don't include it in their price list if they do, it really helps with sratch resistance and lasts longer. If you had even a small scratch on a metallic powder coat without one, the scratch would look black and stick out like a sore thumb. It's a lot less noticable on a clear and can be buffed out if desired. Also, if the parts don't turn out with a top quality finish the first time, the process starts over again as we never let anything leave the shop unless it is. That last thing I want is my name known for sub par work and parts that don't last. I'm not sure what other places around the area charge but I'm usually around the $95/wheel mark for one colour as long as the rims are not in need of repairs such as curb rash or pitting from corrosion. I do have ways of fixing this at extra cost of course.
Currently, our oven is a little small right now. It's about 3.5 x 3.5 x 7 feet. We hope to expand as soon as money permits us to do so.
I would consider offering a group discount if people were interested.
That's about it, I didn't join here today to advertise but just wanted a chance to justify my prices. That's not to say I wouldn't advertise here as my only advertising so far is done on Kijiji and I'm looking for more options. Thanks guys,

btw, that's a rim off an old RZ350 street bike. Not really sure how well it would work on a g35 but I do have a machine shop if you really wanted to try lol.
