Default powder coating in the bay

I remember someone saying there was a place in fremont that did a good job? I can't find the post though. Anyone know any other shops that can do a good job of power coating rims?

$50 a rim is pretty good if they sandblast it and clear it after wards.

I payed $40 per wheel about 2 years ago at Component Finishing in San Jose, they did good work.
The only thing to keep inmind is that most power coaters will put two coats. 2 coats will make ncie sharp edges rounded off, I can see the difference betwen mine and other ITR stock wheels. I was told they need to to make the surface smooth from bead blasting. But $40 per wheel to $125 from Wheel Techniques is a much better price.
