I am fortunate that i am qualified to do SMART repairs and alloy wheel refurbishment (gor made redundant a while back and wanted to learn how to do something just for me)

I need to do mine but just never seem to have the time.. (hopefully soon)

The new colour looks really good and suits the car. What paint did you use for it?

Still some little ****** on the face, easy way to fix that is a really strong glue, apply it to fill any little dents, then sand it back prime it and paint it and you would never know its there

Well done good effort. I thought you were going for a grey at first which I prefer, but the colour you went for still suits the car.
