Default Great Deal on Replacing Trim Rings on BBS Wheels

I live near BBS's North American Headquarters and I know someone that works there. I can get 8 wheels done for $325 a piece plus shipping. All I need is the names of the people ready to get their wheels done. After I call in with the names, everyone will deal directly with BBS. I already did 2 of my wheels. They replaced all of the titanium bolts and the air valve. FYI, there are after market rings that are a little different and don't fit as snugly as the OEMs that BBS uses.

So the $325 would include the ring and the installation of the ring? I wonder what shipping would cost from Los Angeles?

I still have a Montreal rear wheel in my garage that I was keeping as a spare that has a badly bruised ring and I was debating on at least ordering a replacement from some place in the UK and just having it handy or having someone remove the ring entirely and just buff the surface below (a local wheel place I had talked with had recommended this).

That includes the trim ring and installation. A local tire shop wanted over $600.00 a wheel.

FYI. They do not fix or refinish any other part of the wheel.
