Now that I have my center caps back from Al Reed, does anyone know where I can get the emblems painted. Diane (Al's wife) says she can't paint them any longer. They did a great job with the polishing.

Harvey Weidman's wife still paints them but they must be backed up. I've been waiting 2+ years for a set of Fuchs that I sent for polishing and center cap painting...

I did my own on my bus. The wheels are EMPI knock offs. I used Testers model paint and a steady hand. They came out real nice. But, painting on a set of Al Reed wheels is like touching up the Mona Lisa.

Your hand is much more steady than mine. Looks great!
