Default Wheel Powdercoating in/around MD

Lookign to get the curb rash fixed and wheels powdercoated on my CTS-V. How long will they need the wheels to do this as it is my only set and cant not have it for 2 weeks. And where is a good place? What should i expect to pay per wheel with some minor rash repaired as well. They are 18 inch and I wanna do gloss black.

this probably doesnt help u much. but i live in mt.airy md and i had my rims powdercoated on my bird by wally's iron works. its like 15 or 20 mins away from me and they do excellent work. this place might be kinda far away from u though. but also my buddy just had his rear end for his chevelle powdercoated and it came out awesome. at this place it only cost me 160 for all 4 rims to be sandblasted and powdercoated gloss black. and damn that was a year ago and they still look good. this place though u have to keep buging them but they were done in a week or so...

he's located right outside dillsburg pa off route 15, harner bought the zr1's i had done by him so if he happens to see this or you can pm him asking about how the quality was..
he did these for me as well both front and rear, spent alot of time making sure not to get anything on the rivets as per my request..really meticulous guy
a few guys on here (zturd and whoever else that was at the dyno thing in etters last summer) saw the wheels in person and might be able to comment on how they looked as well..
