Refurbed wheels.... Opinions please!

**Nealevo** · Tuesday 11th June 2013, 10:26

Hi just had my wheels refurbed, absolutely cracking job...... But not sure if they are too dark as I'm used to light grey!!!

The photos don't do them justice as I've had extra metallic sparkle added ( because I'm a girl)

**Biff** · Tuesday 11th June 2013, 10:27

I like them, wheels always take some getting used to when they go darker.

Very nice Neal, I'll take your word for it with the sparkles as the pics look like someones blown clear lacquer over grey primer lol but the finish looks spot - on

Go get the good camera...

Go on

As Martin says cant really make out the 'Magic Sparkle' but the finish looks spot on and they don't look too dark IMO.

.....oops it's 'Metallic Sparkle' I'm not awake yet !

**weagie** · Tuesday 11th June 2013, 10:41

Look great, you can do mine next

**T5frankie** · Tuesday 11th June 2013, 11:08

Still be slower than me even with magic sparkle

**Sharkey R** · Tuesday 11th June 2013, 11:29

Bit of tyre shine would do that pic even more justice. They look damn fine buddy!

**Tomcat** · Tuesday 11th June 2013, 12:15

Looks like a good finish, is it powder?.. I had some Volans powder coated a long time ago, mine came back looking like shiny primer. I was so unimpressed I took them home sanded them down and repainted them myself...

nice looking wheels had mine done darker a few years ago time to do them again i think who did these for you and what sort of money did they charge also did they remove the tyres and refit them for you

**stephenevans99** · Tuesday 11th June 2013, 13:17

Very shiny.....Nice

**Nealevo** · Tuesday 11th June 2013, 13:41

Still not sure!!

They were stripped of tyres, dipped to clean off all old paint, refurbed and then painted, as I didn't like the finish of the powder wheel I'm display, £30 a corner

**M-R-P** · Tuesday 11th June 2013, 14:00

Actually mate, they look really nice on the car. And for £30 a corner, a bloody bargain.

**WOODY T5** · Tuesday 11th June 2013, 14:21

Look very nice mate leave them on

**volvokid** · Tuesday 11th June 2013, 14:44

That looks really good

**martybelfastt5** · Tuesday 11th June 2013, 14:56

look great

**Wobbly Dave** · Tuesday 11th June 2013, 15:03

They look a bit dark for my taste.

**The Flying Moose** · Tuesday 11th June 2013, 15:28

The finish looks nice, however in my honest opinion they dont suit the colour of the car... look a little too boy racer on a red car?

At that price you could get them done again and it would still be cheaper than what most firms charge !.
