Polished Wheels
A while back someone had posted pictures of Z06 wheels that had been polished. I'm want to find someone who can polish just the outer spoke surface and the edge around the wheel and leave the rest the original Z06 color.
Does anyone know who can do this? :chevy

Re: Polished Wheels (z060ntrack)
Ontrack,
I had mine stripped and polished. It might be tough to just polish the areas you mentioned.
Jacob, who I think posts here, had his machined. That process might be able to do what you want if it machines the powdercoat off, leaving the good areas.
His wheels are nice. Mine too, just a different look.
E-mail me for pics or more info.

Re: Polished Wheels (corvette dave)
Thanks, I do remember your wheels. I believe you did not have them clear coated and they looked almost like chrome. Were they $200 each? Machining might be an option, but where the heck can I find someone to do that?

Re: Polished Wheels (z060ntrack)
You are correct. Mine were not clearcoated. Cost was $200 each.
If I understand you correctly, you want to polish just the face of the spokes and the face of the rim edge. If you do that you need a line or something to break the polished area from the painted area. I don't think it is there.
Jacob lives in Canada(congrats on ladies hockey team) and had his done there.
I think he paid somewhere around $135 per wheel(american).
I can give you the name of where I took mine and you could call. They are very familiar with my wheels.
