Want to Buy: Lariat Chrome Clad Wheel

When I was searching for a replacement for my wifes Edge, I believe when I checked with a dealer they would give 50 bucks for the old one. I guess they clean them and reclad them and resale them. The single new wheel at that time, was over $900 bucks.
Sold the one remaining good one for $550 and sold 2 of the slight damaged ones for about 400 more. 2 are in the garage headed to the metal yard. Bought an after market set for $800 bucks. They even look better!

No they are not repairable/fixable. Which is why I'm trying to buy one used. Ford wants too much for them. Unfortunately they are about 300 even on ebay.

Here is some pics of the damaged wheel. I've seen some 10 times worse for sale on ebay. Have no idea why someone would buy a damaged one but I'm still thinking about selling the 3 good ones and this one and getting some aftermarket wheels and new tires since I'm having little luck finding one replacement at a decent price.

Not sure either, although if you get the plastic off, I guess you could, albeit expensive, have the wheels painted, powder coated or chromed??
