Wasso Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 As the subject says.... I believe from other posts I'm looking at around £200 - although I need to know if this can be done in one day, i.e. a Saturday if poss and where in the Midlands can I find a reputable outlet that will under take a good clean up. (I may even post up some nasty pics of the wheels a little later - as she will be cleaned tonight) There is one slight issue..... When purchasing the car from the stealer - they advised the wheels were "new / warranty replacement". After 6 months of driving the paint has been slowly peeling off!! I phoned the stealer to find out they were telling porkies and in fact hadn't replaced the wheels but refurbed them. As the alloy paint is peeling is this going to undertake more work, i.e. rubbing down? Also would there be any potential increase in price to have them powder coated in maybe in a slightly different tone of silver? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M13KYF Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 the only thing I would consider against powder coating is if your kerb them again, you cant touch them up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess a simple clean up and refurb is in order - I will be replacing them next year so I just want something to keep the car looking less tatty!!
