Cost to refinish 19" wheels to white - NV,CA

Did some searching before the new thread. Can anyone tell me what it cost approximately to get wheels refinished a different color after market?

More specifically, I am looking for some nice 19" white rims for my white E500. White is a little more rare so I was thinking of just getting some I liked and refinishing.

Also, know of anyone good in the Las Vegas or So Cal area that can do this (refinish)?

Thanks for any comments.

Yah, I just need to find a rim company. I guess my question was would they paint rims they don't sell. I have seen some good deals on this site but was wondering if I could get them painted after the fact. I will do some searching. Thanks.

Great Sources For Wheel Repair

I RECOMMEND ANY OF THE FOLLOWING WHEEL REPAIR PLACES.
I'VE NOTICED THAT THEIR COSTS ARE VERY VERY REASONABLE.
SERVICES INCLUDE POLISHING, PAINTING, WELDING, CURB RASH REMOVAL, ANODIZING, ETC ETC ETC.
ALSO, THEY ARE GREAT SOURCES FOR THOSE WHO ONLY NEED TO REPLACE ONE OR TWO OE WHEELS AND DON'T WANT TO SPEND DEALERSHIP PRICES.
BUT NOTE THAT ALL SOLD PRODUCTS ARE REFINISHED. BUT FROM WHAT I'VE SEEN, THEY ARE NOT REPLICAS.

WHEEL COLLISION CENTER
http://www.wheelcollision.com/
(WCC is definitely the oldest advertiser I've seen in all my car mags. I've seen their ads for 10+ years now.)

RIM PRO, INC.
http://www.rimpro.com/
(Based in MA, huge selection)

WHEELS AMERICA
http://www.fixrim.com/
(Multiple locations throughout the country)

Leepy Great links!

I had no idea there were this many options for wheel repair and painting. I have already placed an order with Wheel America...right here in Philly too.
