Had my wheels powder coated, detailer arranged it but the job is really bad imo and to top it all off, they're not sealed up properly. Been back once already.

I want to get the wheels stripped any back to the original OEM paint finish. Already been down to the wheel specialist in garforth and they only do powder coating and it was expensive. Anyone recommend a place that will return my wheels to the original paint finish using OEM paint, apart from Audi.

Have a chat to Lee with Station Road Bodyshop in Kippax. He wet painted a wheel on my wifes RR that she had caught on a kerb to OEM pain spec. The finish was excellent.

Paint or powder coat, whatever your preference. I've used him to repair a wheel that the wife badly damaged and it come out like new.

I've used Zack at http://www.zacnewheels.com/ many times over the last couple of years and he is top notch. Paint & Lacquer only and based in Shipley.

Tell him Carl recommended you and he'll look after you on price. wink

Feel free to PM me for pics of the work they did.

19" diamond cut, 2 tone lacquered M3 wheels back to factory spec.

Good luck.

I used Raw Wheels in York.
Colour change to pearlescent graphite, top job!
