    Pretty cool process, thinking of doing my rims. It's a cheaper alternative to new aftermarket rims I want. I have talked to I guy who does it, he said it's very durable. They have a bunch of different patterns, but you can customize if you want. I think the price was around $80 a rim.

    That looks wild. I would wonder how durable it is.

    They say it's just as durable as powder coating, for the most part. Yes they can put a clear protective coat over your pattern. I spoke with a owner who said it's personal preference and you don't have to get that. I'm looking at some of the carbon fiber patterns, and they look tight. This is definitely another option and cheaper than buying aftermarket rims. The common price I see is between $80- 100, that's for wheel only. I see about $150 for all 4 caps. So your in for around $600.
