hi, i have got a chance to buy some very limited speedline magnesium wheels. Only issue is they are silver and my car is red/black... [/vain]

Is this a simple job for a competent wheel refurb place?

Competent is the operative word.

Check that they have worked with magnesium wheels previously.

Dymag refurbed and painted my campagnolo wheels.

Good job and recommended at £65 a pop.

cheers. i have the regular speedline corsa on black, cut from granite... The guy will do a swap plus £900 his way. Then i have to pay another £200+ for them to be painted. So £1100+ is a bit of a no go even if it saves 5kg unsprung per corner...
