007 is going to sell me his 19" VXR wheels when he upgrades in the new year. He has had them refurbed and coloured black. I'm over the moon as I love the VXR wheels, but I don't want black, I want them standard colour or shadow chrome.

Here's the deal. Instead of me paying to have them refurbed back to the original colour, I would be willing to do a straight swap if someone wanted black wheels on their VXR. There are plenty of pics of his car if you want to take a look.

If anyone accepts this they will essentially be getting the equivalent of getting their wheels refurbed in black for free, the only hassle having to hook up with me in the South East to swap over the wheels.

Anyone interested?

If you have trouble with the rears and need to borrow an extra pair of fronts, I have mine in the garage.

Atco2, you have a CV8 same as me don't you? I should say that it's standard Monaro VXR wheels like Mark's that I'm looking for in case you were considering the swap mate. Like these:



Unless I've got it wrong, in which case ignore me old chap. I am a noob at the best of times

Ah bugger. I would want to avoid having to refurb the wheels I swap with, especially as Mark's appear to be mint. As long as there are no buckles I woulnd't mind the odd tiny scuff mark.

Maybe just a refurb would be cheaper than a refurb and colour change to black. Might be worth looking into?

Mind you, aren't you in Scotland Si? The petrol alone would probably cost more than a refurb hehe

Well i have ben quoted £150 to have ma wheels Powder coated in black.

Have a looking to it if you want & if an option i could take pics of the bad scuffs and see what you think.

Ma work have an account with DHL so i could organise getting the wheels off you and onto ma car and then send you mine down as u have the spare set.

Up to you ma man laugh

Well that's certainly worth looking into. Can you post some pics so I can see how badly they are scuffed?

Mind you, 150 for a refurb is pretty damned good. You'd be looking at over double that down here. Which is why I don't really want to pay out on top of buying the wheels.
