How to paint wheels?
I just bought a set of chrome c6 z06s and want to paint my stock wagon wheels black. They are polished now and was wondering how to paint them? anyone else done it?

Powder Coating Cost
Recently had my "wagon wheels" powder coated a very glossy black including abrasive blasting and center caps painted to match. All done for $65/wheel and took about one week here in Santa Clara. Made the pewter C5 and wheels finally look right.
