Jo's Focus (Ghia 1.6 TDCi) alloys looked like this this morning,


dropped the car off at 8am and picked it up at 5pm tonight.

They now look like this!!!!!!!



so so so pleased with the results.




Mark at 'THE WHEEL SPECIALIST' in Nottm said the alloy was quite bad and needed a bit of filling to improve it.

But now all painted in ANTHRACITE they look 100% better, making the car look more sporty and new again.... IMO ..... lol



a lot better than the silver we had before..




ANYWAY, I've been given a 'RECOMMEND A FRIEND' form, for them/you to get 15% off.
If anyones in Nottm and interested in getting their wheels fixed ande repainted, PM me for details/ phone number to ring, so you can get you the discount.




real happy with the quailty and finish

thats how its starts... then last week the tyre started going down because of the break down on the laquer.. hence why I had to get it sorted. But had left it a bit long.. they sorted it though.

£266 for all 4 alloys being blasted and powder coated and i needed the tyres to be removed etc and rebalanced and put back on.... as thats an extra

no bad kerbing, but on the original alloy picture the corrosion was quite bad and they said they needed to do a bit of filling, but I've looked this morning and can't tell which alloy was where etc. as all look the same now, I expected to see some surface pimples due to the uneven surface the corrosion might cause, but can't see any.

Diamond cut rim, they seem more prone to corrosion. Ford ones are shocking for it too.
