Default Where to get wheels refinished?

Havent posted in here in awhile, got rid of the SC several months ago but I still lurk around. Anywho, my new car has some Work Meister S1's that Id like to get refinished and possible color change. Anyone know of a reputable place in the metroplex that I can take them to?

when you speak of "refinishing" are you just talking about a color change or because of faded color?

I ask because although I've been wanting some better wheels for a long time I just dont want to drop the money for the kind I want. Can such a 'refinishing' be used to get rid of curb rash and to what extent can a place help wheels that are a little chewed up in places from curbs?

I mean fixing up curb rash and fading of chrome on the lips plus color change of the spokes from black to white

FYI, I did alittle calling around & found a place that said they would sand down my paint & polish out my lips for $125.00 a wheel. Star Tire 10952 Harry Hines Blvd Dallas Tx 214 357 5400.

PecosBill american wheel will fix your wheel, but as far a color change, I dont think they will do that. I asked them if they would polish my lips & they said if they were already polished, no prob, but if they werent, then no they wouldnt do it.
