This is the second time is 2 months they have been done due to a faulty laquer coat previously, bloody cold weather. :headbang:

Anyway the place said they would do them again no problems and they were stripped down and recoated.

Tried to pick as near the original colour as possible. I coated them in FK1000p to seal them before the tyres went back on to make them easier when cleaning.

Sorry for the poor picks but they are off my IPhone.

£200 for the whole job, I just handed my keys over and they do the rest. Very professional job.

I've seen them in Halfords what are they like? I just use APC and water with a varied array of small brushes to clean mine.

Are the rims still polished, or did they paint them?

No I had them Powdercoated, I've tried to keep too many chrome rims perfect for too long. I think it looks a lot better painted.

They are similar to a big elec touth brush and a great for 108s. Got it on Amazon For £13.99 with P&P FOC http://tinyurl.com/4mzxpxr
Thats the link. Found one at http://www.lakeland.co.uk at just over £7 but they are out of stock. At that price do you make any wonder.

Wheels look good nice to see pics of them broken down like that need to get mine done this year and thinking of having mine sprayed centres inner wheel and lip to be honest the only time i really notice the polished lip is at night.

The Lakeland one is the same thats where i bought mine 3 years ago and still going strong apart from changing the brush head as it was a bit worn out paid more than £7 for mine will have a gander in there tommorrow if they are that cheap and pick up another.

These are great for cleaning the small holes between the wheel bolts
