Dropped off 19" rays for powder coating

Getting them done in a satin/coal black with about 35% gloss, but now I'm looking lower it and possibly get some spacers.

Anybody know of a great item/package for a good price?
Place that does nice suspension work?

Thanks-Matt

20mm spacers all around if you go with wider tires, 25mm otherwise. 350z h-techs for a moderate 1" drop. 350z s-techs if you want to go lower and then get some camber kits.

Two questions:

1) This is made by Rays? It's def not the stock 19" on G35's.
2) Is it me, or is that a Volkswagen centercap? :P

Hey is you don't mind me asking, can you tell me a ball park figure of what they are charging you to for the job.?

Because I went to a local body shop, and I know the guy and he told me 600 to get them done all black with a high gloss shine. That included mounting and balancing the tires. I'm just going to wait until Oct. and swap my summers with my snows and save 100bucks.

^sounds expensive.

i paid $320 to powdercoat all 4 of my 19s. they were practically new so not a lot of prep - which is where most of the cost can come from. smart to save for a tire swap as thats what i did going to wider tires. usually about $100-150 to dismount/mount tires depending on where you live.
