The lips are polished aluminum. I found a place called denver powder coat any they are quoting me $59.50 per wheel. Which is not bad.

There are several other places around, was Denver the only one you got a quote from?
Chipmagic does incredible paint work, and has a spray on clearcoating, I would give them a call. They are located a few blocks from Schomp.
Contact Jeffrey A. Weller @303-683-8679

Tell Jeff that Rich Craighill sent you

Hi Rich
I did also call spec wheels but they were nearly $150 per wheel, that would be cheaper to buy new and sell these,
I'll call Jeff at chipmagic and see what he can do.
Thanks for the information.
