Has anyone done this? Thinking of getting the wheels on my '14 LX powder coated in a bronze color- looks a LOT cheaper than buying a set of the Heritage wheels. Won't look the same but probably worth doing just to see.
Let me know.
Thanks
 
Done on my damaged Borbet wheel for Camry. The wheels are no longer in production and have machined lip and a Borbet custom silver PC. The local shop restored them and used silver PC on the face and then clear PC on the that and the lip. I have to also give them one good wheel to color match to. It looks like new. Charge $250/wheel.

So, yes go ahead and do it. Advise: ask the shop to paint a test piece in the color you want beforehand, so you do not have a surprise.
My original wheel coating was PC so the replacement PC looks the same.

Sorry, what's PC mean in this context?
