"All they need is colour matching to your set of wheels,"

since all standard wheels are the same finish shame they're not made to match.. but anyhoo.. anyone got a set of these & painted as yet?

Mine have the gliter finish the same as Spiders, asume they have been refurbed, bit of a problem for the centers of which two need doing.

I bought a set of these on eBay - they come in black plastic and are kinda ok, nothing special. I've not had them painted yet as I've only had one quote, yesterday, from a Chipsaway guy at £20 EACH that's £80 the set . You can guess what I told him . So I've got a few more sprayers to get round before I go for it.

Just take one of the old ones into Halfords and get them to match it in a spray can, grab some clear top cote and do it yourself circa £15. Having looked at mine again, the covers are just plain silver without the "glitter" effect on the rims, I didn’t even notice so I will be doing my own. Did they come with the badges separate?

Needs more than just silver paint if the paint is to stick for any length of time. I was prepared to pay £40 if the job was done properly and today I've found just such a paintshop (Bentley approved) who will - clean/prep the surface, paint with plastic primer, 2 coats matched silver, finish with lacquer for £40 so they've got the work.

Yep, the badges are supplied and are separate so can be stuck on after painting.

I've just checked out the ones on the cleaver trevor site, it says " hand moulded and painted "
