I suppose if you're just painting over the existing gold it might not be so bad, but in my case I needed to remove multiple layers of DIY paint the previous owner had caked on. The nooks and contours of those BBS wheels made it a giant PITA to get the paint stripped. Even with chemical stripper. If I had to do it again, I'd pony up to have the professionally sandblasted and powdercoated and call it a day.

I will be doing it DIY. I don't really have the money for powder coating, and if I am not happy with the out come I can always go that route. Besides it is the type of tedious detail work I am good at.
