I wanted to do two different colors.. such as Red lip and everything else misty lava. But he said it's not a good idea since almost all the time.. the colors tend to ooze down and get all over each other. Is that true?

Also, he quoted me $113 per rim with misty lava. Is that reasonable?

This is the first place I went to and will be looking for others depending on how much it trully costs and if two colors is doable!
I am paying a little more than that per wheel but it includes mounting and balancing so I think the price is reasonable.

Perhaps the best way to get the lip a different color would be to do so after the powder coating has been done, just a pinstripe around the lip?
