Default New Welsh Owner!
Just thought i would say hello from a fellow welshman! Bought a 2005 STi blobeye with 24k and 1 owner from new earlier this week. Loving it so far! Will be sorting out a nice service for it shortly at somewhere like powerstation.

Thanks for the warm welcome! Is Wales a busy region then? Any thoughts on renowheel or thewheelspecialists for alloy refurbs? My OCD is nagging me to get a little scuff done lol.

I have used Renowheel and Castle Coating.

Renowheel ain't cheap but their work is awesome. From a budget and quality angle I am about to get my second set of wheels done by Castle Coatings in Caerphilly. They did my "Pinks" .
