Wheels Refurbishments

I think I may have found some wheels that I always wanted but they are kerbed and in a wrong colour.

Hopefully I have offered him a lower price to what he was actually asking so if he accepts I will buy it.

What's the normal price for getting some wheels refurbished and painted a different colour. ?

£40-£50 is a normal kind of price for simply blasting and powder-coating (depending on the colour). The additional price for repairing the kerbing all depends on how bad it is. If it's not that bad, it could be something you simply blend back in yourself with a file and wet and dry.

Ok I can't keep my excitement in my belly for too long. Here are the wheels.

Wed Sports SA 90 (17")

But they look like this:

And I want them to be like this in it's original colour (Bronze with blue highlights):

The highlights will bump the cost up as well.

Bronze.. delicious, its the colour I want but I just cant justify spending money on wheels when I'm saving for a house at the mo

Would like to see how it turns out though!

Bronze on black is hype
