I use a place called "Bright Metals of the Heights", located in the Heights area of course. Just north of I-10, inside the loop.

You can probably find their contact info/address on the net. Excellent work!

Has anyone had any wheels done by any of these places? Someone that had thier wheels done by Airline said they started peeling within a few months, so I kinda don't know what to think of them? What all did they do on your car Blu Beast?
