Looking for Wheel Painting Shop

Looking for a GREAT shop to have my wheels powder coated black to look OEM. Tired of half ass shops that paint a wheel (like on a curb rash repair) and the wheels have a matte / dull look, not the slightly shiny, smooth look that the silver comp wheels and all other BMW OEM wheels come with.

Serious recommendations only. Thanks guys!!!

Cheers,
e46e92

If you don't mind the shipping charge - IND.

I've used wheel collision in Bath, PA before with success as well.

Yeah, I have dealt with them and they are the first ones I thought of, but as you say, shipping will be a bear.

But, if the quality is spot on, maybe I should just go that route....

Thanks guys for all the input......I'm in Philly suburbs, so New Rochelle area is a bit far

Wheel collision would be a great choice.
Mention Bob Gill (sponsored BMW racer) for a discount.

Also, you probably need to specify gloss black, since the OE black (GTS wheels) is more of a satin finish.
