You can try:
Ye Ole Wheel Shop (410-796-8400 or 800-526-8260) Elkridge, MD
Wheel Worx 8213 Cloverleaf Dr Millersville, MD 21108 (410) 969-7282
Wheel Collision Center 7286 Penn Drive Bath, PA 18014 (800) 292-RIMS

Wheel Worx won't touch it if they have to take the rim apart. I heard Ye Ole is good but take 200 years to complete(don't know about powdercoating) and I heard good things about WCC.

Thanks hurahn...I tried YWS but they were kind of expensive and only polished.
I will give Wheel Worx a call.

I was thinking of powdercoating the GT7s lips instead of polishing. Just haven't found a place to. I rather get rid of these for cash altogether....

There's an industrial place in Manassas and all they do is powdercoating, I had a tour of the place a few years ago. Try yellowpages.com or something.

Good luck.
