So I can find a bunch of threads that say "take it to Al Reed..." but so far none have any contact info. Anybody know his number? Address would be even better. Thanks

I compiled this info a while back:

jamagro@juno.com
sales@magrowheels.com
Magro is a member of this site. Really easy to talk to, great reputation. He's done many of the Fuchs 914 wheels. I believe he polishes the spokes and paints the background a color similar to the patina of the original.

Al has a great reputation, very friendly on the phone also. Will do anodization for 130 per wheel.

Harvey's a perfectionist and assures me the wheels will look exactly like the original. Has some type of dual anodization process, goes through twice. Says other processes involve ?media blasting? the new anodization in the background to get the different finish. And he spends lots of time on the spare because you're constantly looking at the back of it. 300 per wheel.

Formerly Robert Wood. Hard to find out that they even DO wheels on the website, seem to be much more interested in selling new wheels. But, I did speak to a gentleman on the phone on a Saturday who seemed quite knowledgeable. Yes, the reanodize and it's 240 per wheel.

Good resource list ! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Anyone have a bumper chromer referral that can make some backdated bumpers come to life ? I had heard that Santa Ana Plating, aka PCA Industries in Anaheim might be good.

They did both of mine and I was happy. Plus they only charged me $360.00 for both.
