I also would like to have mine redone as the wheel has faded to a very light tan color, but the plastic wood is in real good shape. Do you happen to have a before and after shot you could post?
Thanks.

Chuck,
My wheel was cracked badly but the spokes were in pretty good shape. One spoke has a mark on it that I have not tried to remove.
PY has the wheels re molded then they do the dyeing in house. Here are before and after pics.
