I'm going to try to drop a set off the Saturday before D&G. I need to call him and ask about Saturday drop off. I also wanted to have a post with his address phone in it as my search only came up with this thread.

As an FYI. These wheels started as the late model Carrera fronts. Full black anodize centers and clearcoated lips. Al & his team stripped the wheels polished, painted (inside & out) and stripped, polished & hand painted the centers. The centers where nasty looking but still had sharp edges around the crest. His prices are very reasonable and he does other finishes as well.
