okay so this is what i would like to do.. Take the new wheel, strip the paint and then attempt to make them look like the other three my dilemma is idk how to make it look like the rest.. any diys or addvice would be strongly appreciated
There are a lot of DIY's on polishing some with pictures some without, I prefer with or else I get bored and I hate reading. All you basically do is sand till your hands are numb with different grades of sandpaper starting with like 1000 grit and move up to like 2000 than use some scratch remover. I recomened Meguires scratch x compound. You use that than if you want wax. This is basically what it is after you strip the paint off.

god i missed it and i got it for free all i did was trade my 270mm broadway which was free and i have another one haha
It doesnt matter how much you paid some people find good deals some dont. Either way they pay the amount that they see the car is worth. Good luck on the polishing and have fun. It will take some time, good thing its one right.
here is another good thread i used this one to do my blades
