wheels refurbed
 
found that most places want upwards of 60 odd quid a wheel to refurb them but the beauty of a girlfriend whose brither used to work in a bodyshop.........

i like....

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.
