    I saw a sign and some wheels outside his place last week, but was in a hurry so I didn't stop by. Today I had some time so I stopped and talked to the guy today and he was super nice. While I have never had any work done by him his prices seem reasonable for the NE. He has a special going right now (2) wheels powdered for $25 - not sure if this includes blasting. He quoted me about $300 to blast and coat my front bumper and about the same for sliders. While this seems expensive it's not from what I found. Heating a 3/16" bumper to 380* takes some time and so does blasting off all the rust and crap. If you have raw steel that's not coated or rusted it will be cheaper. His media blaster can accommodate a truck/car and his powder coating oven is large enough to handle a frame (15' x 6' x 6'). He is a one man show so if you can't get a hold of him it's because he is working so leave a message. While he will powder parts you bring in blasted he will not warranty them - he prefers to blast them himself which makes perfect sense.

    He does not have wheel/tire machinery so all wheels must be brought to him without the tires mounted. All other parts must be ready to go as well.

    Anything the alignment shop should know with the new 3" lift and UCAs. Before I left the installation shop yesterday my tires top was way out and the bottom of the tires way in. So they adjusted the plate an the new UCAs with The writing facing the tire and they almost got it back to normal. Any input is appreciated.

    Thank you and Happy Fourth to Everyone

    Ive been there and done that with the black wheels with paint and I wish I hadn't. Black shows every scratch and it a PITA to clean + it's what everyone's doing. I used gloss black. Bed liner is a poor choice due to the thickness of material required (weight/balance) and it's got bumps and ridges making it very hard to clean. Add in black color to that and thats my worst nightmare for cleaning.

    Your best bet is calling then leaving a voice mail. He told me he can't hear squat when blasting so it could take a day to get a hold of him.

    They are also already cooked so it's highly doubtful they were your problem. Maybe it's just cause you're old. :D
