i have the same wheels on my scoob, and im getting them refurbed. was it hard to get the original anthracite colour match? also can you not get the stickers in a reversed "negative" if you follow, ie the text in white?

guess so,that's all i found on ebay tho, my car is white so it shouldn't look too bad
as for a colour match it was just a tin of steel grey met (silver 08) colour match paint from halfords
couple of coats of lacquer too,pretty good result for free eh???

erm fooking excellent. gonna discuss mine with jase at scoobybits on friday when my car goes in for repair thanks to the twonk who t-boned me off a junction. anywho thought, sod it may as well get wheels refurbed while its gone. thinking £40+vat per wheel isnt too bad, not the cheapest, but supposedly the lady who does it in barnsley is top top notch.
