Just make sure when they refinish you set they don't forget about the insides, we've recently seen an other post where the insides were not finished and it looked a little incomplete.

very true - a lot of places cheap out big time on the clear coat on the backside off the spokes and what not... resulting in the clear coat chipping from the back and then eventually to the front.

We usually have them, however we have not had to advertise them for a while, some how customers keep finding us..

And no, we are not giving them away either.

Union Rim Repair - John is a great guy and he knows his stuff. Refinished my 951 wheels twice and lots of knowledgeable people were very impressed with the quality of his work. plus was the only guy in the GTA that knew immediately what was wrong with my Turbo Twists Hollow Spoke wheel that didn't want to balance out for the sake of my life. Great service, quality and great price.

Had my stock C2S wheels painted glossy black - Steve @ wheeltek did a great job for a good price. I have no problems recommending them.

I've gotten my set redone at Union wheel repair. As mentioned before, they did a great job. They also did my brother's wrx rim which was gunmetal (hard to match) but managed to get it matched nicely.

no regrets.
