    Looks good.

    How much do you want to spend and what sort of condition are they in right now?

    A tube of autosol and a rag will do wonders if you are on a budget or a full powedercoat refurb if pockets are a little deeper. I would always be wary of just sticking a coat of 'alloy paint' on as its not a longterm fix.

      you start with paint stripper.

      then acid bath and shot blast.then wet and dry,start at 180,then 400,600,800ans finish with 1200.best done on a lathe if possible

      drill out plastic bungs,and tap M8 for shiny s/steel cap heads

      then,Autosol is your friend,take time,small circles,and the results are worth while


      centers are from roughtrax,£6 each

        I have been given a budget by the missus as i have other things to get ie: Suspension lift and to take the side steps off as well as painting the underside.

          done this due they weren't the best looking


          removed the little plastic nuts, and painted it centers are from roughtrax too



          then put a reflective strip, that you can choose color, even black, that reflects white by night

            I have a budget of £2k from the missus, thats for lift kit, new tyres and wheel refurb. The alloys are really bad, so i would like them back to how they should be ie; "look at me". what company is the one in gloustershire and does it have a website? cheers Daz
