Is it possible to restore these rims to as new condition and replace the white lettering to the sides?

Cant remember what they were made of...some kind of plagy so restoring them is probably a nono

anyone got any sensible tips  :daumenhoch:

before you know it, he will have informed the rest of the western world that you have an old school sticker factory churning out forgeries like there is no tomorrow.
