Thanks Brett. First set I've done with paint and clear. Super happy with how they turned out. Think I might have them sold actually... We will see.

Think there is another thread on this subject and didn't get favorable results, don't do it man, and welcome to the site, there are some cool guys on here and you should learn a lot as a new member on here :D
lol...Tide, I've been AWOL! I think that other thread was mine also. Idk, I kinda want them to match. Maybe I'll buy another set of aftermarket caps and paint those??
If you do it get the repo caps. Might be cool looking but I wouldn't mess with your OE caps. Or, paint the repo and sell me the OE's :)

Has anyone used Alloy Wheel Repair Specialists to refinish their wheels? They are a nationwide franchise operation that works with dealers and retail customers. I spoke to them and they said they would charge $110 per wheel to do the refinishing and they offer a lifetime warranty on the finish.
