Hello everyone. I'm thinking about to have my stock rims coated with gold and polished on lips. Does anyone know where to get them coated, I'm in SoCal, OC. Thanks.

What are you particular looking for in a powder coating shop? Maybe I can help. I've done my homework and checked quite a number of reputable shops in OC. Olympic, Embee, Mag Masters, etc... I've heard good things about Embee.

Best deal was Embee for my 19" Volks. $60/wheel.

Olympic was $80 each and MM was $75 each

The good thing for Embee is that the have an in-house shop. Do all their work there. MM sends out for their work. Embee has a two day turn around.

The Rays you showed in the link does not seem to have a polished lip. I had Works and those rays are not even close to a polish lip. Its looks like to standard polish for the rays (maybe slightly polished) with just the center that is powder coated.

Google Embee Powder Coating bro. You gotta do some of the work
