So i went to the shop to check out my car it has been a week, i saw it in the back on 4 jacks, so after talking with them here is what they said.

They need more time...There was a clear coat on them so they stripped the clear from the Lip of the wheel without effecting the spokes, which is a hard process since they couldn't take the rim apart, ( 2-Piece welded ) and they have to get in between those gaps. i know that process is done basically, now they will Polish the wheels back, i asked her do they apply a clear coat back on them? or is it better without it? she said give us a call back when the main guys is here to talk with about that,

so my question is guys, after the polish you think they would spray a clear on it? or is it better without it? if it's needed then let me know so i can inform them. i'm pretty sure the guys working on it know what to do since i was talking to the lady at the front desk but i love to acquire more info and whats my best options. seems like i gave them a lot of work to do which is why it is taking that long. plus they don't want to screw my wheels up and they are being very careful.

 

I don't have a clearcoat on mine. But for your wheels being the way the spokes poke over the outer lip, you may want to have a clearcoat on them. unless you don't mind occasionally polishing between them.
Not having a clearcoat on them doesn't hurt them, the exposed aluminum will tarnish after time and you just have to hand polish them with some thing like mothers ETC..

 

Alright after 4 weeks of wait, i can say this.

1-Do not get any welded wheels, it will make the job ten times harder and maybe even impossible unless you dip the whole wheel in acid then spray it one color,

2-never use acid cleaners of course!

3-not liking the clear coat on wheels, once that goes bad well you have to strip the whole clear coat of the rims and its impossible to match it once repaired. i rather have a polish and if it goes bad, sand down and polish again.

Basically, it took them a while because they kept pushing other dealer cars first, and i was patient maybe too patient, after getting my car i noticed they never did the barrels, which was part of the deal. i complained but i would have to leave the car for another century to get done. i got tired payed my dues and left. but i made friends with the guy working on the car. so he is outside now as i type doing my inside barrels, and the results are amazing. they are way more clear and shiny than the lip . but overall they look better than before but never the same shine as the factory, the employee told the manager not to clear the lip and leave it shiny but the manager went ahead and cleared the whole wheel. they painted the spokes some grey color which actually looks good not bad. but this experience and cost is unbelievable . i wantyed you guys to know whats up in hopes someone will find this thread and learn before doing my mistakes.

Shops will never do a good job, but they can get it near, if the wheel was not welded i will say they will do great! but getting near those cracks is crazy hard.

Here are the pics of the barrels inside
Old picture when i first mounted the wheels,


The damage, it was almost all over the wheel, that freakin acid stuff!


Progress


Finished barrel, Like new even better!


the wheel itself

You can still see signs of the work between cracks here and there but not much noticable and better than before, oh well i might sell them and getting something a lot easier for me to work on.

 

What a crappy ordeal this whole process was for you. I would say they turned out real nice.
