I have a set of deep 6's to be refinished. Other than Al Reed and Harvey Weidman, I need a recommendation for a wheel re-finisher that has a good reputation. I'd prefer someone on the west coast. There is no immediate urgency but I don't want to wait a year to get them back.

Recommendations?

Thanks!

Greg

There is a guy in Costa Mesa that is really fast and really good.

He's usually on the Porsche boards; Pelican, Registry, etc.

Peter Nguyen (autoclub911) on 911 S Registry. He's good and fairly priced.

I'm familiar with the Al and Rick. Harvey is my #1 choice but he's booked out.

Tell him "Tom" sent you.

He told me he doesn't like to do Fuchs. Too much work.
