Shop that can paint rims (Miami)

Does any one know where I can get my rims painted in the Miami/Ft Lauderdale area? I would like to get the face painted black and keep the chrome lip kinda like this.

There was a guy whom I met at the Lokey meet who came up with you miami guys. He had a DG or Silver coupe with the Greddy body kit and big chrome wheels. His kit was pretty scratched up from the drive, but he wasn't worried. He told me he had the hook up with a certain body shop and payed at cost prices. I forgot his name and I don't think i've seen him post in awhile. But if you know who he is, maybe you'd could ask or work out a deal with him.

You need to get them powder coated...not all body shops do that. Matt (Zul8r) had his Mayas done and gave me their card for when I get mine. But its in Orlando.

...and Matt's Maya's looked SICK!!! I think he paid a super small amount of money too, ($200 total???). Give him a PM on my350z.com and you'll get an immediate reply.

Thanks guys. I will keep that shop in Orlando in mind, but I would like something much closer since my car will have to go on blocks (I sold OEM rims).

I think Demonteverde321 was talking about me. I do have a hook up at a body shop but they don't paint wheels. I do have a couple of #'s to people who do in dade and broward if you want Gman. I used a shop in broward to paint my rims to my old Audi before I sold it. They did a good job so just PM me if you want the #'s. Here is a pic of the Audi wheels.

The darker color really makes those spokes look thinner.

And the hub. The chrome was just to much for that thick hub. I think it looks much better now.
