Default Awesome Wheels Spotted

I just saw some awesome wheels for the Z, believe it or not they are right under all of our noses. I'm talking about the standard 17" wheels, except highly polished rather than the paint. I saw them at a dealership, and in a high shine, they are spectacular looking. All of the 3 square motif on each spoke, really stands out and looks fantastic.

Some of you experts on wheels can probably help me out. If I want to get the paint removed and rims polished (high shine, but not nickel-plated look), where do I go for this work? Also should a highly shined wheel then be clear coated or left raw to shine up during the washing (don't worry I have a SB and it gets washed at least once a week).

Any help out there, anyone, anyone, Bueller?

Hey, Dumb@$$, I wasn't looking for a particular business name, I was looking for advice on what type of business (ie. body shop, machine shop, etc.) would be able to best do this kind of work.

I should have known if I made a call out to "geniuses", that only the stupid as $h!t posters would respond.

So anyone have any serious notes to give me. Previous D-head who posted need not respond.

Dude, u need to calm down. Geesh. Try calling a shop that does wheel repair and machine polishing, could also try a shop that does powdercoating. The second poster made a good point, the phone book IS a good place to begin your search.

PS. In the future try to not make ur posts so in ur face and sarcastic, a sarcastic post will get a sarcastic response.

Check eBay. There was company on there that did exactly that. IIRC they charged about $300.
