Wheel Refinishing Shop in Northeast (to polish and clearcoat)

As an owner of a 2006 Corvette C6, the factory high-polished wheels leave something to be desired. In my opnion, the finish is more "milky" than "high-polished"

Additionally, I have some very light scratches on the Clearcoat...probably the result of regular washing.

I would like to have the wheels stripped, repolished and then clearcoated. Is there a reputable shop in the Northeast which someone can recommend?

I live in Northern NJ, but certainly do not mind driving for a good shop.

The only shop I found via Internet Search is "Wheel Collision Center" in Bath, PA

One of the members of a BMW forum that I am on bought "new" rims for his 540i from Wheel Collision Center. Having seen them in person, they are really nice. I think they may be refinished but you could never tell. Give them a call and see if they are up to the job. from what I have heard they are very professional.
