Jozinobi Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 Hi AllI never thought it would happen but yea I finally kerbed my alloys, well only a little anyways.I don't really want to travel far to get them refurbed and I found the same place that done my tte spoiler can do my wheels too. £50 beans to get 1 wheel refurbed and £150 for 4 + any colour under the sun which is very tempting.Before you ask the damge is to the front passenger side and it is not that bad really but I want to get it fixed for peace of mind.It would be terrific is someone could photoshop the colour of my alloys to matt black, white and pearl white if poss or any other colour they can recommend and blank out the centre cap emblem as that will have to go unless you think it should stay silver.Check out the original pic, you will see they can look quite nice ;bI know my wheels don't look great from afar but when you see them close up they do put other 5 spoke non jap alloys to shame.@Enzo you said you liked my rims before so what colour scheme do you think bro and think its worth doin? These guys are coachworks but they can get the job done!I look forward to seein sum works of art and helpful replies and advice soon!I am looking to get this done next week! Soz for the old pics but its the best I can do for that angle. Bump strips are already off and clear and front indicators.CheersPeace AllJoz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lobotomy Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 Here's matt black for you the now Joz. Changing to white is a bit harder but I'll give it a shot tonight. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jozinobi Posted March 16, 2006 Author Share Posted March 16, 2006 Thanks LoboNicely done.I would like to see a more convincing white as you say ;bAnd yes Sparky I may have the highest starlet of them all lol.Thats why Im shoppin around for suspension too.I think the last pic looks class, cheers for slammin it bro.Can't thank you enough.Gives me a much better picture of what I want done If I decide to do all 4!Any other recommendations or colours would be awesome, red??? I am swaying towards the white but if it looks naff plz say so ;bPeace OutJoz Quote Link to post Share on other sites

(like prangers!!)Im getting these on the weekend but they will eitha be for winter or track use as im also getting a set of Rotas!!!!Sparky Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jozinobi Posted March 17, 2006 Author Share Posted March 17, 2006 HeyI still need a few more ideas that anyone can come up with ;bIts a shame she is not already slammed...I am still thinking just to get the damaged one refurbed because it has to be repaired anyway...Peace OutJoz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nanglebadger Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 Hey Joz, im likin both the looks there, black whels looks quite stealthy, but the white i think just looks that little bit nicer, not honestly sure why just my feelins on it from lookin at Lobo's chops.Phil.

Jozinobi Posted March 21, 2006 Author Share Posted March 21, 2006 I decided to refurb the damaged rim and get some new alloys later on.Not in a rush so will get that fixed in a couple of weeks.Peace Out Joz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lobotomy Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 My suggestion mate... why refurb them at this point in time then? wait till your ready to get new alloys and then refurb them so you can sell them for a bit more. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jozinobi Posted March 21, 2006 Author Share Posted March 21, 2006 Hey Lobo Its just more cost effective to get the whole lot done at once seein as gettin 1 refurbed will cost 50 beans and 150 to do the whole lot in any colour.It don't feel good drivin around with a kerbed rim but I see your point, it will probably happen again and its not worth gettin done til its time to sell up If I do but the damage may seep further into the alloy over time?What I meant was IF I decide to get new rims, not definite ;bI really think these rims really suit the car so just wanted the damaged one fixed for peace of mind because I really want to keep them nice for as long as I can.Thanks for the chops anyway ;b i would still like to see a more convincing white, any chance Lobo mate?
