Long shot here..

Anyone know a good, reputable powder coat shop I can use? I want to go Satin Black on my RS spyder wheels.

I'm in South Tampa but willing to travel a bit for the right shop.

Thanks!

I've used "Glens" in Tampa. Very good finish!

actually just rang them, quick estimate was $280-$325 a wheel, but i have no idea if that is what i should expect?

+1 for Glen!

I've used Glen's for more than a decade, awesome shop.

Sounds about right! I paid $250 per wheel in 2016.

Go to a place that knows what they are doing. Powder coaters who bake the wheel at too high a temp (quicker process to save $) can weaken the wheel. Sounds like this Glen's place knows what they are doing.

Wally’s World of Wheels out of Gibsonton Fl does a nice job. They redid one of my R8 wheels back when I owned it. It’s about $150 a rim if I recall. They are not a fancy boutique shop, they do mostly all of the wheels for the auto body / insurance shops around Tampa.

I had my RS Spider wheels PC to Satin Black as well. I take my car to Vortex Motorsport in Tampa for all my mods - they are the best in town. I had my car there for downpipes, filters, track inspection, etc and they took care of for me and it turned out fantastic. Not sure who they use but might want to call them and find out. This was easier for me as I just dropped off my car at vortex for a few days and they removed the wheels, etc. Some of the PC places I called you have to just bring them your wheels w/o tires. Most don’t have a removal/install service and I have no way to do that. I think mine were about $200 a wheel but that was 3 years ago.
