Recently got a 2004.5 C230 Kompressor Sport sedan. long story short...ran over a pot hole at night on a back road which cracked and bent my rim. I have the 5 spoke chrome pattern and am being told by MB dealership they dont make these in chrome. I need a new one as this one is scratched to hell and being repaired for use until I locate a new one. I thought about getting new aftermarket rims but I really enjoy these as they have the star in the center and really accent the black body. suggestions?

and yes i have been driving around on my poor do-nut spare for a week...

If you can get the MB painted on steel or plateable alloy, not aluminum, find a plating shop in your neck of the woods. Visit them to see what and how they do their work. If satisfied, show them the sample wheels you wish to match and specify very clearly what will satisfy you. If push comes to shove, plate all four and they'll be identical.
