Any recommendations to paint OEM wheels?

Hi guys,
I'm fairly new to the Porsche community but not new to cars. I'm learning so much on the forums. Any locals here know where you can steer me to a good or reputable shop i can get my 996TT OEM wheels painted in the centers with the stripe on the lip like the pic below. I've seen several guys here get them done. I've called Wheel Enhancement and they dont do it. Does anyone know who can???

Thanks in advance guys!

Here's an example.

Kevin,

Congrat's on the 996, I'm jealous.

Custom Wheel Service, talk to Paul.

3158 East La Palma Avenue
Anaheim, CA 92806-2802
(714) 632-6700

And I would go for powder coating.

You can also try Shoreline Motoring (www.shorelinemotoring.com) in Huntington Beach. They've done Quik911's HRE's on both of his cars. Talk to Paul, the owner.

I've done 1 set of chrome and 1 set of powdercoat thru L.A. Wheel and Tire and they've been awesome. They only work with OEM wheels, and they are down the street from me, so it works out pretty well

I think the highest concentration of powder coaters are in Cali (mainly Orange County area) and Florida.

Glad to be living in So Cal!

Thanks for the recommendation. i'm wondering how black [winter] chrome would look on OEM 996TT wheels?

Performance Wheel Repair (performancewheelrepair.com) in Walnut is THE best place to go from my experience and their pricing and service is very competitive if not the most competitive...

Here's a few examples of work I've had done there:

1. Brushed aluminum finish on my HRE 545's


2. Powder coated the centers of my Kinesis K58 wheels satin black


3. Complete high polish re-finish on my turbo twist wheels


4. Powder coated my turbo twist wheels satin black


5. Powder coated my BBS CH's satin black w/ painted Speed Yellow pinstripes




6. Completely got rid of multiple bends on 2 wheels

...BTW...Performance Wheel Repair offers SAME DAY service..I just set up an appointment, drop the car off and pick it up when its ready Their work is FLAWLESS and I highly recommend them to anyone!

+1 for Performance wheel repair. He just refinished a set of HRE's I sold and they looked amazing and his price was great.

His name is Marco, number is (909) 534-8672
