Help with wheels

[wherman]

I am looking to get my wheels rechromed for my 330i ZHP. The wheels are pictured below if anyone cares or maybe it matters for rechroming. I don't know if these were chromed from the factory or if they were aftermarket, but at any point they are now chipping/peeling. I asked the place I'm getting my service at today and they said they had done it once for a customer at about $350 per rim .

I then called wheels america today and they are asking 800 + 100 for shipping + tax. At that price it seems a little dumb to rechrome when I could get brand new rims (these or others) in the $1000 range. Are there any other options (powder coating, crayola crayons, etc) for repairing these? There is only slight (less the an inch) of curb rash on 1 wheel so I don't really need them reworked.

Thanks for the help.

chroming wheels that were never chromed is cheaper than rechroming (just the process of removing the old chrome is more costly)

There is a place in california I had my wheels done from my former Viper GTS but it was back in 01 and rates have probably gone way up plus I don't remember the name (sorry)
