Need clean 1 front and 2 rear original 17 inch rims

Hello there.
Since I bought my C43, there have always been dings, and scratches. I am still looking for original very clean rims.

I already landed one front one today on ebay. So slowly i will be replacing them with clean ones eventually will paint them black.

So anyone has a clean wheel sitting around, and wanna make few bucks; I am your man. I do not have a big budget, I am not fancy either. Just want cleaner dingless whells...
Thank you in advance for your help.......

PS ( i will tell you privately how much i got the 1 very clean front rim on ebay if you ask privately)

Throw your car on some jackstands and get them refinished. Should be around $100 per wheel including the tire mount/balance.

If possible get them powdercoated to help prevent future scratches.

Benzless.
Depends on where you live. There are a couple of good places out here in the DC area.
