Wheel Re-spray

[C180AMG71]

Instead of buying a new set of alloys, I decided to have the original AMG alloys re-sprayed. Drivers side collected this morning, Passenger front will be done by Sat & the rears by the end of next week.

Good job!

Suggest you get hold of some night pack centre caps. Would finish it off nicely.

I love that anthracite colour.

What did it cost if you don't mind me asking?

Total was £300 inc VAT. Cheaper than a set of 3rd party alloys.

Was that a "tyres off full spray" job?

Look really nice mate, I am thinking of having this done to mine as the awful diamond cut finish lacquer is starting to peel. Right by the centre caps of all places!

They look nice but £100 more than I paid, and you say 're-spray' did they go back to bare metal/straighten/powder coat and bake ?

For £300 that is what you should expect.

Sorry, just saw the link to the video. You did get the 'full Monty', Nice job.

you're not the only one, i was really happy with the wheels when i first got it, i look after it and don't curb it etc now it turns out like **** on its own

i wonder if getting someone to refurb it and putting a different (and more durable) finish but look the same is possible?
