+ id be scared to buy second hand wheels tbh you dont know what someone has done with them!

you have a point there! they dont corrode like 182 wheels! crap cheapo renault wheels why ooo why!! but that still is going to cost a fair wack then i will end up with lots of wheels unless i sell these! + i ever have to buy new or find some good second hand and there never going to be that good...

lol @ FFS calm down Richard! :o great thanks! looking forward to doing this! may try the inner part first and if that goes well do all the inner wheel! ;)

^ looks nice but i was wondering what they looked like inside! LOL i guess theres only one way to find out! + one of mine has a slight nick in it! on the inner part of the weel! what looks like someone has caught it when putting it back on so i could rub that down to!! all this for 10/20 pounds...

oooh now your getting me excited! :approve: my kind of thinking! i could spray them inside whole! ......oooo what to do what to do!! exiciting times ahead!! any pics please haha (honest i would like pics)

yeah but what the point of spending 500.00 on some new wheels - when i could rub down the slight impafactions of the inner wheel and spray them! (i was thinking mask up the main part of the wheel (inner) and rub down the inner spokes and spray the inner part in anthercite?! what do you think...

i could wheel a wheel round to the poeple next door or borrow there paint swatches :S but i think then they will still think im strange!! hahaha

^^ i know im a fussy sod! (do i make you look normal Rich) :o could you imagine the conversation id have with the paint shop! LOL

would be nice if i could get a match for the inner wheel colour?! o:

good tip thanks! were can this be purchased please motor factors?

^^ thats all i do tbh!

ok thanks think i may paint the rear inner part of the wheels then to get them perfect! thanks folks!! :) inner part in anthercite to mate the front face! :) mask off paint part of wheel! ;)

are you sure it primer i just thought it was bare alloy! and Ali i dont think they will help tbh :o but thanks folks!

would just like to get the like new with out the cost of a refurb! i know im sad! lol but i enjoy it! :)

they havent eaten though the paint as there isnt any paint! (i did think about painting the rear?! or just the centre part! to get a better finish?! just a thought!

As you can all see (and have probably seen already) form my thread that i had a go at trying to get my wheels perfect! as anyone used any wet and dry say 1200/1500 to try and clean up pittered areas (wheel cleaner only got them so good) just a thought! pics below of what im up against!!

^^ not good! :( how do you re cut a bolt in situ sp ??

when i took the picture to start with it was still wet! but the caliper has a rough texture to it yes! - looks a lot better than it did at least :)

i had the paint to hand and im pleased with the results! have done this before and the results wouldnt have been any better to be honest! im good with a brush! ;)

LOL ^ i dont mine them being like that! all this talk about people saying it was the wrong thing! when the wheels are on really looks good! imo! ;)
