There is the possibility of getting a wheel repairer to do it for you....there was a thread here SOMEWHERE where a mkV owner got one of his wheels repaired and it looked fab, but I can't remember who did it for him. Repainting wheels isn't too expensive if you don't do anything fancy with them, and I'm sure you could find some repairer that would be happy to fix up your wheel for you. Oh and there's also the option of powdercoating wheels; a few of the members here have had that done and that's quite cheap!
