I don't even know if they do chroming, but I am assuming they do!
Thanks!

No, Randy never told me where, just that it was somewhere around here. If you can get the addy or a # from him, he is on the board once in a while, I know this area pretty well and could definatly find it. Will be glad to help. RT1 |

Rob, here's the email I got from Randy. Hey Jack, The name of the place was PBS. Its a L shaped building in Giebelstadt. Its right next to Bravria Yatchs. Hope that helps. By the way when I got my Corvette rims powdercoated he charged me 50dm a rim. I dont know what they will charge now with the whole Euro thing. Take Care!! Stateside and loving it!! Randy |

Cool, Gieb isn't very big, I will look today, and if they are open on a Sat, see what they can do. If they aren't open I will check on prices and stuff on Monday. Did Randy say they do a good chrome job? I don't want you to get another sh!tty job on them, I saw what they did with the powder coat, and that was sweet. I will keep you posted on the results. RT1 |

Jack, stopped by today around 11, and the place was locked up like a virgin on prom night. I was going to stop by yesterday, but got busy with alot of personal stuff I had to take care of. Well I don't know if they were out to lunch or what, maybe one of those Bayernish holidays. I will stop by and at least get you some #'s tomorrow so you can get in touch with them, as I am heading to the winter wonderland (Warfighter) on monday, until about first of Feb. WaaHoo. RT1 |

Jack are you still thinking about powder coating the rims??? Or are you actually doing it? |

Jack I don't remember if I said this before . But getting your wheels dechromed is a little pricey. Although powder coating willstick to chrome better then rattle can. It will eventualy flake off. Good luck Man |

Actually, Roy, it's not costing me anything!  Have your wheels started flaking???
I'm not too worried about that, because by the Summer of '03, I plan on having a set of Forgeline GT3s!!

No trouble man. I was thinking that I could pick the rims up from you anyway. I am always over there somewhere, driving one of the Warrents I work with. I go to Miesau about once a month, sometimes more. Whatever you want to do. I will get the numbers anyway... just in case. RT1 |

Dude, I don't know if I am stupid or what... I can't find them open, thus didn't get any prices. I just hope they answer their phones. O and you could also MPS the rims over here. Well here is the #'s: Voice 09334 / 993270, Fax 09334 / 993250. I will be in the field until the 1st so, if you want to get with me one the cell, 0160 262 5744. I might be back on the MLK weekend, they haven't told us Y/N on that one yet, and I might be going to see Tony. I could swing by K-town, or meet you there @ Tony's. It's all up to you. Just want to give you the most options. Good luck with this. RT1 |

John, I'm still waiting on an answer, because now they're gonna have to sandblast them. I can never make up my mind, but the back 2 wheels are still good, so I'm thinking I'm just gonna have the 2 front wheels rechromed!!

Oh, and it is OK Car Styling!! They said initially that it was gonna be about 75 Euro for powdercoating, and about 150 for chroming! I can pay for 2 to get rechromed for the same price I can have them all powdercoated. Since I finally bought a set of Winter tires, I can leave the chromies off!!
