Default MEGA DEAL WHEEL RE-FURB

My pal recently had his porsche 3 piece split rims re-furb and they look absoloutley fookin awsome. The guy who did the work, does all the re-furb/repairs etc..for BMW/AUDI/PORSCHE and JAGUAR/LAND ROVER in Solihull and Birmingham. I went to see him today and he said if i get 10 people to have there rims restored to former glory, but better. He will do them for £150 a set yes £150 a set, for that you grt,

Tyres off
rims stripped right down
any minor damage-kerbing etc..repaired. (buckles etc.. will be extra)
powder coated
painted to the colour of your choice (there are display wheels to pick from)
finished off
tyres back on balanced.

The finish is fantastic and he's a real nice guy. So names down if you fancy a new lease of life for your rims. You will though need to take your wheels to him directly or through me if you prefer. He is based in Birmingham. I will though need up front payment, but you can go view his finishing for yourself.
Names.

He can, but it would be quicker turn around if you drop them off as he has a load of porkers or audis in all the time and they take up the sitting space.

I'm not sure RM, do you want them re-polishing and laquering. Are they a two piece rim, because he'd have to split them to do it, if they are.

I only need the rims polishing and laquering as the inner part is fine on all four wheels.....yes they are a split rim design so would need seperating.....the local wheel refurb guys wont do them!!! could you find out how much???

Thanks..Adam

No problem Marv, it's open to any make/style of rim not just subaru's. Usually about a day turn around.

I've got 6 wheels that need doing... 2 are slightly damaged and I'm interested in getting them all done the 'right' (same) colour as they are all sorts of shades of gold! Don't mind sitting my 'B' on axel stands, but need to know they could be turned around quickly...
