Noticed today when washing the car that the wheels are getting a bit scabby.
Car was bought in Nov/Dec 2015 and I think the wheels had been refurbished before purchase.
They are part painted/part diamond cut.
It looks like that the tyre fitters levers have damaged the lacquer coat and corrosion is now starting around the rims.
The diamond cut/grey painted look is difficult to keep clean from the bonded on brake dust.
I'm considering having the wheels refurbished and painted black.
So, number one, can anyone help with a photoshopped image of the wheels recoloured black?
Secondly, opinions please
- will I spoil the look of the car?
- will black be just as difficult to maintain as the diamond cut finish?
