My refurbed and resprayed turinis



  Mercedes slk 320
well i have just turned 25 so my lovely BF said that he would pay for my wheels to be refurbed.

So after weeks of trying to find somewhere - finally found Renowheels in bridgend.

Last friday i got home from work and we took the wheels off and left her sitting on concrete blocks :eek:

I'm having mine refurbed soonish, staying with the factory silver (or as close as they can get), £55 per wheel.

£180-200 i wish - i rang everyone on yell.com, went round local garages asking etc - no one around my way would change the colour - it was either bridgened which is about 50miles from me or take them over the bridge to bristol which by the time i added on two lots of bridge money was the same price???

thank everyone for your comments i have just come in after going for my first drive with them on - loadsa brake dust already grrrrrrrrrrr

Pricey, but nice! Well, i would say that ;)

Not keen on the callipers... keep them black unless they're something to show off imo.

Looking very nice !! white against the blue looks the part.

had my old ibiza cupra wheels refurbed in white and they looked spot on - well having to clean them every 2 days was a bit of a b**ch - the dreaded brake dust n white wheels !!!

good work​

Thanking you - i sprayed the backs with auto glym brake dust seal. then polished the fronts hoping the brake dust wouldnt stick and just hose off - but no such luck. its been raining all day so next dry day i may try coating the front of the alloy in the sel to see if that works. worst case is that i have to sponge them off everyday which isnt to bad - love them tho.:)
