There are several threads about refinishing your own wheels. You can e-mail me for more details if you wish.
Brian, I know that its almost impossible, but the fact is that my spare is brand new. Has never been used. I think that if I am able to find 3 more like these, then I am set. Then I'll just take one of the ones I have on the car now, and use that as the spare. Viola...4 brand new rims. But I am probably hoping for too strong of a miracle. I'm hoping to bump into three of those rims somewhere!
