Powder Coated 20" Factory Wheels.

Am I correct in assuming that you cannot paint your rims if you lease your Tesla?

You could plasti-dip them and then peel it off when it's time to return it.

Exoticar in Westwood,Ca also did mine.

Monster Carter could you post a few more pics of the side profile of the car in the sunlight? I'm thinking white with powder coat wheels, but would love some more shots in the direct sunlight of yours!

Just had mine done locally in the OC, one day turnaround. Makes the MX looks much cleaner.

Happy to provide reference for folks who are local in the OC / LA area.

Hi everyone,

This is my first post as I'm a new member to TMC. I've been reading all the conversations and I can feel all the enthusiasm ( some critical ) and excitement for all things Tesla.

I'm still waiting on my MX delivery but I found this thread and wanted to ask the group if there is a place you would recommend in the bay area that does a great job powder coating rims. Ideally, it'd be great if they had experience with Tesla. I'm also curious if there was a place besides Exoticar in LA. I'm looking for a shop that can do it with a one day turnaround.

Any advice or suggestion would be great.

Thanks!

I'm also curious about powder coaters in the Bay Area without a lot of downtime. I dipped the wheels with a matte black that I like, but I want to go to powder coated now that I am sure I like the look. Mine are less shiny than @cclemon8 's, but that should be achievable with the right powder.

Reaching out to my tesla family for suggestions on where can I get my wheels powder coated in maryland/DC area. Any suggestions or tips on how to get them done?lessons learned from your experience that I should keep in mind?

Thanks in advance for your help

Masti I'm in the DMV too did you get yours done? If so where?

I know some people have been interested in powder coating the factory wheels. Just had mine done in satin black. Turned out pretty well I think. I always thought that the silver factory 20" wheels look very small compared to the car. Turning them black I think tricks your eyes into seeing them as bigger wheels.

How did they powder coat the chrome plated plastic lug nut covers?

Anyone powder coated in Austin TX area? If so where did you do it?

Thanks so much for posting these. I have been on the fence about powder coating. After seeing your photos I'm defenetly doing it.

Looks great. I'm going to start out by "dipping" mine with black rubberized paint (e.g. dipyourcar.com) to see if I like it or not, then move on to powder coating once I'm sure.

That's exactly what I did.

These look great. I'm getting mine done next week but still deciding on exact color. Is this just satin black or something else? Thanks.

My wheel shop switched me out to nice metal black lugs.

Hi can you tell me where in Anaheim you got your wheels done? Thank you.

I'm definitely going to be powder coating my wheels matte black! Local shop in OC quoted me $300 for the set. They repaired my OEM Audi wheels to brand new condition since it was curbed and rashed.

Can you share the shop info please? Thanks!

Did they powder coat the lug nuts and wheel caps too?

Rhino Custom in HB is excellent. Ask for Luis. Got my dechrome, full tint, powder coat wheels and painted calipers, and protective film done by them. They also worked on my other cars too.

Hello,

For those of you that did powder coat, what has been your experience? Durability issues? Maintenance issues?
Any follow up would be appreciated!

Thanks!
