Grabbed these for free from local salvage. They need to be re-cleared or what?

Any idea how much?

So sand em down and paint right over em? Rustoleum? Color? Any idea what powder coating or having them refinished costs?

having them refurbished will be expensive, search for local wheels repair and you'll see what i mean. sand them down and have someone shoot them with automotive grade primer, paint, clear. i would have them redone in a light silver, be close to the look they are now.

By the way I love your truck. I am thinking about giving my truck a "fender look" by removing my molding and taking the herculiner up to the top of the style line and over the fenders. What do you think? In black of course and I will probably only cover the natural hip that the fenders already have. nothing crazy.

Not too bad for a DIY wheel restore

Nice, they look much better. But I think you should do the center caps too and just leave the bowtie.

I kind of like the contrast. But I do think they should match. I stopped because I ran out of tape. I can do centers anytime tho.
