I don't mean to hijack the thread butI dont want to cluster up the forum with another similar thread. I would like to knowthis also, one of my wheels is having a leaking seal. I'm looking for a good place to reseal the wheel or maybe get all 4 repainted. How much does it usually cost to reseal one wheel or get all 4 wheels' face repainted? I figured if they repaint my wheels they gonna have to reseal it afterward anyway. Thanks for your help all.

Wheel Omni in Holywood, FL is where I go for everything. Chroming is outsourced but he, fixes, paints, polishes, clearcoats, and does colored clearing of wheels in house and is very very good. I have been going to him for years... His name is George # 954-958-8937

He'll also polishes and clear coats any metal for you, I had him hi-polish my intercooler and and my IC piping and than clear coat them in a black chrome looking finish to match my blk chrome wheels. He even went and did the crossing lines inbetween my Intercooler vents. Very detail oriented man.
