im sure that if you put a little elbow grease in it then the water spots will come out. just get some billet aluminum polish and have at it. and with the wheel wells, i just taped off my fender and spray painted them black again.

Yeah painting them is the best solution for the wheel wells, you should try out some rubberized undercoating. Its at all parts stores, it comes in black and brown, and it dries with a nice textured flat black finish. If the wheels you are buying are chrome try some chrome polish or some wadding polish. Eagle One? makes some and it comes in a tin can, your local parts store should have it also.
