Refinishing wheels
I have a '00 coupe with painted stock wheels. They need refinished do to almost 7 years and 93k miles of use. What would be the best, cheepest way to fix them.

don't forget to sandblast them, or to fully strip them before refinishing them.
I hate to say this, but you maybe just as cheap to buy a newer set of wheels in good condition. Otherwise it maybe time to upgrade!

i've seen painted y2k's go for less than $400. I believe when i had my waggon wheels powder coated, i paid 125 to have them sand blasted and another 225 for the powder coating. That was almost 3 years ago, so i'm sure pricing has changed.
