My Atomic. CSL reps were damaged last week and they were sent off to a well regarded wheel specialist to have them redone. Sadly they are now silver grey rather than the bright chrome silver the Atomics cone in originally. I can’t live with it. The solutions are buy two new rear wheels from the Eastbourne shop or find a wheel specialist local ish to me (Gloucester) to get them refinished in exactly the same colour. People who have Atomics will know what I am talking about- they are very bright. Help please!
 
They have had two goes at it. They did my e89 wheels and they were fine. But hyper silver is a very specialised finish as PVR will testify. Ordinary bright silver just doesn’t cut it.

That’s anoying Clive, did you get a refund or discount at least? How about getting the fronts done to match. Or take the car in so that the shop can do all four or at least match them up. Otherwise if you’re flush then get the new rears and keep the grey ones as spares?
 
The brighter silver is much better. They reflect light rather than absorb it. So I don’t want to do the fronts to match. So I have bought another set of rears. The guys at Eastbourne knew of my car and fitted the originals. I am discussing with the perpetrators of the misdemeanour to see how they can help me.
