HRE Wheel Painting Question
I just purchased some used 3 pc. HREs for my car. They have a full polish and clear coat on them. This is a little too much for me. I would like to have the centers of the wheels refinished to a charcoal gray color. HRE can do this, but they charge $200 a wheel.
Is there anywhere local that I can have this done, preferably without taking the wheels apart?
Here is a pic of the wheels I bought (not my car):
Here are 2 pics of what I would like:

agreed, I tried to paint my wheels myself. But each turned out a different shade of grey...it sucked. I just took them to Tim's Custom.

There is no way in hell I am going to try this myself. Where is Tim's Customs? Is this something that he could do? Do you have any pics of your wheels that Tim's Customs did?
Thanks guys.
