White Alloys?


Sparki

Recommended Posts

Im thinking about having my 18 inch alloys refurbished as there is a fair amount of kerbing on them (previous owner) but if i get them done im also thinking about having them coloured white.

I think white alloys would suit a race blue vRS but would just like to get peoples opinions before i decide to go ahead.

Is anyone good with a paint package that could do a mockup pic to help me decide?

I can't help you with the pics, but I can advise you as a white wheel owner. I used to own a Citroen C2 GT and it had white alloys as standard. When clean, they looked amazing. However, it took a lot of cleaning and polishing to keep them that way. If you like cleaning then go for it.

Hmm... I like :)

I'm also interested to know if anyone has any suggestions on companies which refurbish and colour alloys.

I've had a quote from The Wheel Specialist for a full refurbishment, strip refit and balance with a gloss white finish at 300.00 + VAT

This seems quite expensive so im obviously interested to find cheaper.
