    Painted for me. Powder coating looks more like grey to my eye

    I posted the same question in the other Detailing forum and The Wheel Shop in Riverside was recommended

    I'm going to call around tomorrow to see where Ferrari repair shops send wheels in OC, as that is closer for me.

    Here at Bobileff Motorcar in San Diego, we strip and refinish, weld up damaged or scuffed edges, just last week we refinished 5 wheels for a Lambo Miura SV, and 4 wheels on a Lambo Diablo, give me a call at 1.858.622.1600

    I much prefer the painted version, besides the fact of originality. :) Mine, we do here back home.

    Powder coating will cause hydrogen embrittlement, that's why aircraft wheels are never powder coated, only painted.
