Just got my wheels done

Got my wheels powder coated from this shop in Santa Ana for $200. The owner's name is Jason... really cool guy. It took a week to get my wheels done, that's because he had to reorder some more powder. But he said it'll usually take 2-3days, to strip and powder coat the wheels. Here's the e-mail
jtml4200@gmail.com I'm going back to get my lugs done.

Oh! and ah Dan gave me a shop to go to, to have my wheels polished and I don't know how much it would cost to have it polished. Is there any shop that you guys would recommend to have it polished? now I end up spending a lot more than the wheels are worth dumb!!!!

any pics?

I'm kinda curious how yours turned out... you got any pics? When I picked up my wheels, there was another set of wheels next to mine that looked "off", and the guy told me he had trouble with those wheels because there was a lot of rust in peculiar places, so he ended up doing 2 coats to it.

nice color choice, will. it would have been best to have the lips polished before the powder coat. if they polish them now, they may burn into the powder coating
