Update
Ended up having trouble finding barrels from the wheel repair shop. Later found out that maybe they dont deal too much with japanese wheels. Very reputable shop and they seem to have a LOT of rim repair work going on on site but ended up pulling my wheels from them and taking them elsewhere. Will update with pics and who did the repair when i get them back. Just to let u guys know, its basically a 2pc (simulated)welded wheel converted to a 3pc. modular wheel. looking to get them back sometime nextweek.

so after LONG and stressful waiting, the wheels have NOT gotten done. so far ive lost a few hundred dollars to shops that either didnt finish the job, did not answer calls and just sat on the wheels, stole my money and ran, left me hanging...im thinking i should just buy another set of wheels at this point.
