No, unless you happen to have a CNC machine, a media blaster, and a powdercoating shop, you are going to have a bitch of a time.

if you want to get technical and actually machine the face of the wheel, then its a bit of work...but if you just want to prep and paint the insides of the spokes it is not that difficult...i coulde easily show you how to do it...

I got the face polished and he got the inside painted on his own. The polished part looks like chrome, looks better than machined in my opinion.
