powder coating OEM lug nuts

**torquemada** · 03-30-2008, 12:14 AM

like title says, has anyone done it?

I don´t like that my rims are golden, and my lugs are silver/chrome

I bought some cheap blue muteki lug nuts, and the paint comes off after a year, lowest quality

Any suggestions?

I would mask off the seat area, but I don't see why you couldn't do it.

At liquidpowdercoats.com they say that they do them for $1 each i think.

thanks, does anybody know if it will last longer than paint?

powder coat will almost always last longer than painting. on lug nuts, the paint would last until the first time you set a wrench to them.
