If your thinking of spraying the standard wheels, why not look into getting some vetra or caviler ones, as there abit wider i think, look better than the standard ones

Nah matey, looking to sell the car in the next few weeks so its staying as it is

eeeeerm from what i remember it looks alright, people have taken them off sanded them down, primed them and then sprayed them to match there car (finished with or without the badge) that gives a good effect

hello mate cheers, i have just sold the car which is abit sad.

I use meguiars three stage product, its really good, but your looking at a 4hour job, cleaning, paint treatment, polish, and wax. But as you can see, it comes out a really nice deep red
