Oh tell me you don't still use American Stripping? Those retards can f-up a wet dream. I had them do a lot of parts on my eclipse and needless to say it was all crap, taping off things they shouldn't, leaving sand in my brake calipers (which took forever to clean out) and the quality of the work wasn't that good. I use a new guy, I'm not sure what he charges for wheels but his work is awesome. PM me if you would like his info.

Here is some of his work.

That's the price if you have 19" 3-piece rims and if you remove the center for them to paint. The center also needs to be stripped clean of any previous paint. They count doing that as a "motorcycle wheel" which is roughly 30-40 bucks a rim.

If you have 1 or 2 piece wheels, they might charge you more since they have to tape stuff off (which takes FOREVER BTW)

However, I use a new shop these days. Met the shop owner, and he's a car guy like us, also our age so help out his new business:
