wheel refinishing

Hi all,
thanks to all who helped with the sagging doors, looks like my week vacation in March is going to be spent fixing doors and then painting. The only other thing I need to is find a place to get my wheels refinished. Anybody from the board know any good sources to get this done. I am in Toronto. Last summer I went to look at a Camaro Third Gen parts car and a guy who was at this shop over by Langstaff and Hwy 7 told me he would refinish my wheels for $200 bucks. He had one that he had just finished and it looked brand new. $50 bucks a wheel sounded pretty good, wish I had taken him up on it. Now I can't find him. I have the WS6 wheels. Any help would be greatly appreciated
thanks
Scott

Your other option is Wheel Wizards in Hamilton. I had mine redone at Carcone's and was very pleased as well.

What sort of bucks we talking, wheel wizards is something like $100 bucks per rim. Maybe I can set something up with them to do some people's wheels before the summer hits.

Ya I had mine done at Wheel Wizzard. I cant remeber what I paid for them anymore since it was a long time ago but whatever it was....it was worth it, they did an awsome job I will see if I can dig up some before and after pics for you.
