Bit of a set back, the original coating the crappy chrome as you can see in the first pic is on really well and it takes an hour blasting on each rim then over night in the chemical stripper so a few more days and i should have them back.

Marsdendean I was thinking that. I was quoted £295 for my rims when i got the car. Yes they are badly corroded & kerbed, but couldn't justify it at the moment.
Ok that's a little excessive, BJV (via WIM) charged £200 for mine which included straightening two damaged wheels, would have been less for a straight refurb.

Mikey is200/s13 yes mate still £20 a rim
That's incredible value for money given the number of hours they must be putting in to get them sorted! :thumbup:
