LOL you asked if anyone does these things in Texas because you don't want to ship. You might want to get a little more specific than Texas since Texas is 268,000 sq miles.

I used wheels america for my wheels and they did a great job and they had them done next day


There is a place here in Arlington that does the coating but I can't remember the name of the place right now. i'll call a friend and see if I can get it. I think Mike (V6 bird) knows the place too

Ceramic coating in the dallas area

Enduro in Mesquite - used them once and they are OK

Competition Coating (Mike) in Arlington - used him many times and he is great but limited by size of parts he can do.

sorry, I just realized I said the name was "Competition"

Performance Coating Specialist
1107 California Lane Suite 209, Arlington, TX 76015
(817) 274-1947
Ask for Michael

I also have used a place in Carrolltion called Quality Powder Coating. They, too, do silver ceramic. Ask for Jim
1838 Forms Drive, Carrollton, TX 75006
(972) 488-0635


Both have done wheels, manifolds and odd engine components for me. Michael's limitations are when you get into sidepipes. I build Shelby Cobras have the need for sidepipes so that is the only thing he has asked me not to bring so far (but those are 60" long)

Good luck!

Is Quality Powder Coating high? I've talked to them in the past when I was looking at getting my wheels powder coated and they quoted me a really high price. I thought it was a little too much
