Williams Comparison differances.

[northy]

Might be able to lightly rub it down and relaquer it ?

 

[Daz]

I need mine doing - not desperate, but they are the wrong colour.

They dont look bad.. until I park next to Mats.. and then they look terrible.. heh.

Waiting tho until we find somewhere which do them really well and the right colour..

 

[Ben H]

Theres no kerbing on them - but its coming through slightly on three two rims and quite a bit on one of them. I cant decide if its worth taking them back to the refurbisher or not.

 

[Daz]

Well, is it really noticeable?

Even if it wasnt.. and I *knew* it was there, Id take them back - 6 months is nothing..

See what they say - they can always tell ya to get them redone.. or, if ya lucky, redo them for free!

 

[northy]

Pictures ?

 

[Ben H]

Ill get some later in the week as my dad has the best digital camera and he takes it away to work with him. Its only really noticeable on the one wheel, but its not so much the cosmetics as the prospect of having to have them done again that worries me.

 

[FATBOY]

always comes back thru i do believe cos when i saw gti girls williams her rims had been done not so long ago and they were starting to corrode again on the diamond cut edge and the place where she had hers done said they couldnt guarantee them!

 

[Daz]

Hmm, it shouldnt come back.. heh.

On mine the bit under the numbe plate is black, not sure about the wheels or towing eye. I would definatly say my wheels havent been refurbed, so Ill check mine tonight Northy.

I am going to get my alloys refurbed at Ace Alloys in Bury he quoted 40-45 per wheel depending on how much damage is on the wheel, he even know about the silver rim before I mentioned it so I think he might know what hes doing....well I hope

 

[northy]

Hopefully

 

[northy]

Hopefully if it hasnt been resprayed it should be black mate.

Ill look forwrd to the close up of the rims mate. Need to get them sorted soon.

Ive found a clearer picture of what my wheels are like. Borrowed one from when michael elder had his done.

Ive DRAWN ON the gold bit, which have been silver on all the williams Ive seen so far.

[FlamingMonkey]

Just been out an checked mine.

Strip under No. Plate is black, towing eye is black, and my wheels are the same as the pic above although more f**ked and the gold strip is not as obvious. Mine has silver rim, them if you look close you can see the gold running down to the tyre, hard to spot spot but it does have gold to the tyre from the rim.

 

[Martin]

Maybe just the way your tyre sit on the rim, as the wheels are obviously gold all over apart from the silver edge.

 

[2 live]

mine are gold towards the rim mate...u seen em ffs lol

 

[Daz]

They shouldnt be like that - Im 99% sure.

 

[T-800 CSM 101]

My Williams has a Brass plaque on the dash. Does anyone else have one?

 

[northy]

A brass plaque on a Williams ?

Must be a fake!
