i have just got some new wheels for my MY01 so want to sell the old ones.

now two are good but two are curbed. other problem is that all 4 have the aftermarket anthracite paint job starting to flake of and show the original silver underneath.

so....is it easier to just get them repainted or should i get the paint removed? and will that screw the original finish?

and how hard is it to fix curbing?

any help please

T

ps- want to buy them when done?

thanks for that Tiggs

Just have to see the colour of the wheels on the MY03 before I make up my mind

Don't suppose you have a full side view of the wheels ? - Easier to photshop then !!

When you say kerbing, do you mean light scuffs or bent rims?

I would be interested in them when fixed, what sort of money are you after?


Do they have tyres, if so what are they like?
