ISO machined Formula rims (pictures)

I want to have my 89 Formula rims restored. I have researched and called some specialty places. I asked around at the local crusie ins to get names. The process seems to be: blast rims to remove clear and paint, paint the "windows" on the face side and then machine the face to remove any blemishes. Finish with a protective coating.

Has anybody taken their wheels somewhere and if so, are you happy with them and the process?

I have read alot of threads about DIY but dont think I am up to the task. I did my gold cross laces for my TTA. The Formula wheels have a lot more complication to them.

I have seen pictures of the cross lace wheels that were machined. I am looking for pictures of the Formula rims that had this done. Picture attached is of mine, original finish, they are starting to look a little aged.

Thanks in advance.
