[quote][i]Originally posted by nibnob21[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by Minty_Fresh[/i] Nice wheel choice, the cost of the refurb is quite expensive imo, the silver wet paint and lacquer is standard that my mate rob does and charges £180 (inc tyres refitting and balancing) Also have you thought about a oem lip to finish the front off? [/quote] Due to the current state of the wheels wet painting wasn't an option. The corrosion means they need fully taking back and powder coating. That was the opinion of more than one body shop. So it's £200 for the powder coating (sand blasting, acid dipping etc.). £20 for disposing of the old tyres and fitting new tyres inc. balancing (less than garages charge if I were to get new tyres fitted elsewhere). It's completely up to me whether I want to pay extra for them to give them a wet coat on top of the powder coating, it may be that I'm completely happy with the powder coating finish and leave it at that. Yeah I do want a splitter. Don't think the GV lip would suit it and standard oem ones are really expensive (£80+). May get one eventually. Also on another note, I had one of the body shops check out the blotchy patches on the wings and he was pretty sure it was some kind of a reaction rather than lacquer damage. [/quote]
