Wheels are next on the list. The split rims on mine have previously been painted (badly)along with the bolts and have a few kerb gouges and scratches. Some are too big to polish out.
Just pondering the next step as it's not a job I want to do myself.

Can you buy replacement dishes?...... Cheaper than a repair?

Failing that a specialist near Birmingham?

Cheers
Rich

Ow do Rich :-)

Was randomly having a search myself on a cost effective replacement wheel for my lattice given I'm struggling to find any center caps for my originals

Came across this brand "Dare". For my size 15x7 is only 300 quid.

Hi Glen........how's the ear busting Wedge?

I have looked at buying new but I think the refurb costs are similar?
The originals are worth strong money so maybe I should mothball them and buy some replicas..........paperbag

Try contacting Mike (The Polisher) at http://www.the-polisher.com
If you send him pics of the wheels he may be able to advise you.
Am just about to send my OZ rims to him for refurbishing smile

Thanks for the replies. I do want to keep the originals so l'll try the polisher bloke.

Pureklas in Coventry get good reviews, anyone used them?
