I know of a wheel sprayer/refurbisher near Milton Keynes. The two sets of wheels I have seen which were done by him were spot on, top quality jobs.

Go on you know you want to,masking tape them up carefully and away you go ,and on a plus side if you **** them up give them to a sprayer and you have only wasted a few cans of paint.
Also this would then free up more money to spend on something else on the car.

Well its not too hard to do it DIY, just VERY time consuming! just done a friends wheel for him but took a long time (did the whole wheel, including removing curbing) looked great though! about a week after a car drove into his while parked and curbed the others. The garage did the others but couldn't believe the one i did was a diy job!

The site I used as a guide was: http://chrishowells.co.uk/?page_id=252
