Spanked the STi with Swissol
Having got my Prodrive wheels back from getting powder coated (used to be gold) I thought I would give the car the once over. Here are the results

Thanks Ben, best thing to do is get the wheels powder coated. You need to find somewhere that has a good reputation and get a price. They should have lots of colours to choose from but ask their advice which looks best.
I got mine done for £175 and that included tyres off and on again. The wheels have a light sparkle to them and are nice and shiny almost like a gloss finish.

I love my car, but id prefer the wheels to look like the P1's rather than the Gold.....
Where did you get yours done, and how long did it take (I dont have other wheels to put on in their place)
Thanks again

I got mine done just outside of Aberdeen, I had the originals so I just stuck them on whilst I waited to get the wheels back. Took about 3 weeks (they are busy), there are a couple of companies that can recondition your wheels and it takes about a week. I think they can also supply you with exchange wheels to go on your car, cost is about £270.
