Anyone have good luck getting a professional looking job? I'd like to get a '49 wheel redone also, but instead of a translucent ivory like original, they tend to look opaque. Thanks,  John Walker

The best place would be Dennis at Quality Restorations , expensive but probably the best.

johnwalker,
The Donaldson company that Bill suggests in Arizona recently did my 59, and it was top notch, with the chrome too.  Ask for Jim.
Have fun,

 I found several in the 27 page list of vendors found in the "Modified Cadillacs" forum and used "Steering wheel Bob"  He was considering it but it was too bad so he welded a new rim on it and it is beautiful, and he also did my other knobs and parking brake handle. The 1942 radio had plastic buttons on the radio and he did those also.  I have a picture in my restoration blog.
