Default Need my wheels polished

I've got a set of BBS LM wheels that the clear coat is peeling on. I'd like to have the barrels re-polished. Anybody in the area know someone who can do this?

He said he wouldn't polish my wheels because it doesn't come out to his standards, but he gave me tips on polishing them myself.

The Zee Machines guy did. And chrome plating is ugh, especially since aftermarket chrome plating always ends in a wheel that won't hold air.
