I mean some closer ones of the wheels - I'm curious to see the difference in finish between DIY and pro-finished refurbs

The finish looks good

Looking for some 8" or 8.5" wide 17s and might refurb them myself

That looks good Bud
That white goes really well with that style of wheel and it sets off the green and black nicely too.

I recon around 20hrs but i done them other 2 weeks off and on.Think its well worth it as they do change the look of the car they were silver before with a fair few marks.

They look excellent, I always cringe when I read DIY wheel refurb and inevitably they look DIY, but yours look spot on

Reminds me of when I did a successful DIY refurb of my old Pug 295 GTi wheels from silver to white. Thing was I used my bathroom to do them in lol!
