It only cost me $100 a piece to have them done, and $100 a piece for the wheels, so it would have cost $800, but the guy scratched one on the edge of the lip, and knocked off $100. The scratch is under the lip protector of the tire so you can't even see it. I know there are alot of guys who have paid alot more.

de-badge, de-flap-and de-bar and wheels will have a better impact IMO nice powdercoating job though. my uncle hooked me up with a guy out in newport beach that powdercoats signs and stuff for him. he quoted me $25 per wheel to powdercoat, i had to ask him 3 times before it sunk in, i just havent bought any wheels to powdercoat yet.

The wheels on his car were done, and he said they had been done for 3 years, and they didn't have a scratch on them. He said once he cooks it, it turns into like glass, and all you have to do is wax them every once in a while, no polishing, buffing, or anything.
