Very poor coverage, especially in the areas of the spoke windows and lugs was the most troubling . In fact, I had the "shop" run one set through again - hoping for better results. This situation was not unique to me, as I would later learn from other enthusiasts that they were equally disappointed with the results of powder coating as well. In any case, any reputable, high quality auto body shop should have no problem painting your wheels.

p.s. However, by virtue of the fact that there is no delineation between the spokes and the lip on your wheels, its going to be very difficult, if not impossible, to create a contrast in color or surface between the two .
