Does anyone know if I can refinish my OEM black rims in the OEM gold?

Yes, any reputable wheel refinishing shop should be able to handle it.

Thanks for the quick response. I have to try and find a shop in south Florida.

You do not need a wheel refinishing shop..... if the wheels are in very good shape you need a powder coater.....

This too. There's a local wheel shop that specializes in refinishing wheels, powder coat, etc. So that's where my mind was. There's also a body shop that does wheels.

You may want to ask your local dealer, independent shop, or PCA region members who they'd recommend.

Thanks, I’m going to do that. I have an email into my shop. Thanks again.

The stock aurum (gold) wheels are painted. I have yet to see a powder coater get the same finish. Someone posted the glasurit paint code a while back.

For reference guards red and aurum.

do you know if the rims can be painted to look OEM?

I love the look of the rims with guards red. I think the aurum looks better than black.

I recently refinished my wheels and went the powder coat route. The original black wheels had chips, and pc is much stronger. There are million powder colors these days, so you could easily find the color you want. Be sure to find a top notch pc shop so you get a nice finish

Slate gray with powder coated, originally black.

Your car looks great. Florida shop? I saw someone posted they had it done in Miami which would be good for me.
