    Sorry to not add anything to your thread...Was just going to mention I really really like this style of wheel.

    What needs restoring on them? Is the paint peeling off or?

    if you DO find a affordable place, please share. Most companies/People charge a premium since there is a lot of work involved to do this wheel properly. I've seen "affordable" and would never send my rims to them. The best quote i've gotten was over $1500 for a "factory" rebuild.

    You can also rebuild them yourself if you had the time/patience.

    4 BMWs.
    Got mine done in perth amboy for $150 a wheel a few months back. The only thing I would make sure this time would be to have them replace the bolts with new after reassembling the wheels.

    Yeah, they have visible scuff marks and the clear coat is peeling.

    BBS Rims Restoration

    I had my old set of 42’s redone at a place in Fairfield, nj for 500 for 4 to a factory finish. They did a decent job as well. Can’t find the picture though
