Our wheels are polished not chrome plated correct?

There are some local places too..One in Macedonia called Blackburn which I checked out in person.. I didn't have a rim with me for them to look at so he quoted me a price of possibly $189.00 per wheel whichwould be stripped, blasted, re-polished and powder coated clear which is better then spray on clear coat. and a 7 to 10 day turn (wheels are sent to Indiana) I have a business card around here somewhere if you need more info. or you can google search the name and find them. There is another place out in Medina that I have not checked out yet called Motomotion, Inc. they have a website motomotion.com.
Although I'm not driving my Marauder this winter, it was previously driven in winter before I got it and has the same issues just starting so I, too, am looking at getting mine redone to like new for a fraction of replacements $$ and still keep the original forged wheel and not the cast aftermarket..AS info. original replacements are over $1000.00 from Ford each I think near $1400 each

Man it just seems that for that kind of money I could just get a set of black bullits or a new cast set. I really wanted to do a set of 20" Torq thrust
in black with the polished lip but from what I've read the offset won work.

Someone will correct me if I am wrong, I've had 3 Crown Vics before the Marauder and alot of Mustang wheels fit Crown Vics so I would think Marauders too. Depends on what your budget is.

Factory wheels are polished, then clear Powered Coated, FYI.
