Paint or powder coat??? (rims)

I have a set of black Advan SA3r's with the red lip. Im getting my car repainted Rio red and the paint guy said he can redo the rims to look like new, and match the rio red the lip. Should i go ahead and do this, or is it a bad choice, should I be powdercoating instead? Also, I need to repaint the center cap that goes over the lugs, so no more super advan sticker, where can I re-order more? Thnaks for your help! I placed my question in this forum cause I know a lot of eg's have these rims.

If you have the money to do it right I would get them powder coated. It takes a lot less to chip normal paint than it does to chip PC'ing.

As far as stickers I am not quite sure.
