I'm might get a 2003 Tiburon. If I do I'm gonna get it yellow and try to paint the wheels blue. How would I go about doing that?

 

You COULD have a shop paint the rims for you with professional high heat paint (remember..rims get hot)...but you're best bet s to have the rims powder coated. It will last a lot longer than paint, and it will have an "aftermarket rim" look to it. Good luck! wink.gif

 

What's powder coating and how much does it cost and where can I get it done at? What is the process of doing it? Could I do it by my self if I buy all the materials?

 

Check the back pages of ANY automotive magazine. They should have several ads from wheel powdercoating places. Also check your yellow pages under powdercoating.

Go with who you feel will do the best job for the best price.

 

Don't think you could do it yourself unless you have the type of access to a "paint-shop" type facility. The current finish must be blasted off of the rim first. Then it is powder coated and baked in an industrial oven. It should cost you about $100 per rim!
