Honest opinion please!
« on: April 21, 2011, 07:15:47 pm »
Just had my wheels refurbed.Not 100% on the colour but they couldn't match the original colour so asked them to match the best they could.The finish is great just not sure if it looks odd!

Original


Refurbed


Not the best picture quality.Taken with iphone

Quality of finish looks very good, but imo, it does look like the wheels need washing, if you know what i mean.

That's my thoughts.I will put some sealant on them
Tomoz and see if that can lift them a bit.
Thanks for the input :happy2:

Love the colour and they really suit the car.  It will take you a while to get used to it.   :happy2:
