i got quoted 300 today for sand blasting, prep and the actual powdercoating. Thats with 2 coats of clear though so he told me if i only wanted to do one he would do it for 250. My rims have minimal curb damage and "supposedly" the sand blasting will take care of it.

i got a guy who powder coats all kinds of stuff for me. he charges about 50-75 a wheel iirc, as long as you pull the tires off yourself. depending on how bad the curb rash is, you can usually just smooth it out yourself with a grinder or sander. cosmetics don';t really matter if you;re gonna paint or powder coat over it.
