24-K gold plating. Cost and value?

[benz88]

It always increases in price, I know when I had my wheels done, Gold went up that week in price. He told me if I had already paid it would have cost me another couple hundred.

not sure about the monetary value of doing this, but from past experience, it is very expensive (200 a face at least) and its not as strong as say gold anodizing. I have a few things done in both, and while the 23k gold looks better, the anodizing is definitely a harder surface

Hi,

How much does 24-K gold plating usually cost? How much would you say it increases the value of the rims?

Thanks,
Scott
