IanS Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Hi all, Been slowly getting my car up to a good standard of 'detail'. My Rays look good from a distance [except for a previous owner curbing ] except that no matter what products / methods I try, I cant shift some staining on the inside rim of the wheels. I am loathed to try anything too abrasive as I dont want to ruin the finish - so I think the only way I will get them as good as I want is to get them fully refurbished. Anyone know any good companies round London or products to give them a new lease of life? Cheers Quote

IanS Posted February 13, 2008 Author Posted February 13, 2008 awesome, will check them out though hopefully not going to need the full strip down and re-paint at £200 a corner! Quote
H5 Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 awesome, will check them out though hopefully not going to need the full strip down and re-paint at £200 a corner! IIRC a refurb should be no more than about £35 a wheel..... Quote
