Let me know what you guys need. I can do pretty much anything within reason as the oven I have is about 4x4x6.

2TurboZ - $100 for the valve covers (including shipping) and depending on the complexity of the intake anywhere from $65-$85.

TORQDSS - Yep, I’ve done everything from truck to dirt bike rims. Just let me know.

i’ve had 4 wheels PCd for only 100 bucks.

100 for 2 valve covers seems steep.

Yeah…I’m in Bath, right off of 390. Realistically Buffalo is a little under 2 hours from Buffalo and I’m up there a fair amount so running stuff back and forth won’t be that big of an issue…especially if it’s for multiple jobs.

If places are charging $30 a wheel I guarantee they look like crap or will eventually. I don’t even see how that can cover prep time so I’m guessing they just don’t do it…problem just wipe them down and spray them. I media blast everything to make sure it’s perfectly clean and down to the metal before doing anything.

Yeah.There is NO WAY someone is doing the proper prep work and a good job for $30 a wheel.

Well $10 a piece to be blasted, but I do that myself. Hot Shots does amazing work too. They do all of SSBC brake calipers. After they blast it they out-gas it for 24hrs if im not mistaken and the powder coat them. so $40 a wheel. Ill post pics when I get them back.

Without stripping I can wheels for $40 or less…it’s the stripping that takes the time so $10 a wheel for that shows me they’re either using something beyond aggressive or not doing a great job with it.

You guys can go with who you want, not like I can stop you. However not only do I spend the time and money being a sponsor on here but I do quality work and stand behind it.

PM’s have been sent on price quotes.
