Default Clear coating wheels

I am going to pay to have them refinished. Found a local shop that I am going to check out tomorrow at lunch. Don't have much money or time, but more of the former, so I pay someone else to do it. I am getting new tires soon, and will do it at the same time, just drive the bug while it is getting done and leave the 'teg on blocks. I am going around in circles about what to do. It is $150 per wheel to get them remanufactured, which they don't really need, or $300 for the set to get them stripped and reshot in clear. The clear is peeling a little, with one scrape on the face of one of the blades on one wheel. I may only do one, but I want them all to match, and the others are peeling so...

Also toying with the idea of powdercoating them, which would probably cost more, but might look pretty sweet. Any ideas or suggestions, particularly if you have a picture of powdercoated GSR blades would be appreciated
