Where to get wheels refinished?
I live in Vermont. I have a set of JDM BBS ap1 16 inch wheels and center caps that I want to refinish (strip, paint and clear coat, not powder coat). The shops I have been able to find up this way all say they want about $200 per wheel and they cannot touch the center caps.
Do you know of a shop that will do this sort of thing? It just does not seem like that big a deal to me and I know members in Canada who have had it done beautifully for about half that price, including the center caps. |
200 per wheel for paint sound excessive. I need to refinish my cr rims as well and I think everyone talked about al’s hubcaps in mineloa Long Island

Its a long trip. But, I'll check it out. Thanks.
I agree, $200 is steep. Especially when all they are doing is the face. They won't paint the barrels, and they wont spray the center caps. |

These guys are just .5 miles from my office. If you use them I'd be happy to help in any way I could. I always see mobile wheel repair guys at the local auto dealers. Maybe stop by and see who does the local auto dealers repairs for them. They likely contract it out. |

Very long drive - might involve shipping. But, that may end up being the only solution. |

I'm looking into a more local vintage car restoration shop in New Hampshire. I'm thinking that is the way to go. I'll update later. Not sure re the $ yet. But, they do extremely good work.

I had Elite coatings in Plainview do my wagon wheels and they came out great, considering them for a set of Volks.
