diamond cut looks mint.........im so tempted

It is tempting, the only down side of it is that the laquer doesn't adhear to the bare metal very well. If you get a stone chip the bare metal will corrode and turn milky. Wheels can only be diamond cut twice. Maybe metal polishing then laquering would work better as the wheel could be re-polished quite easily.

be careful with cheap diamond cut finishes as i know a few people who had them and after a while they corrode badly

think im going for anthracite...only a subtle change but think it will set the car off and make the alloys stand out from the car....we will see :)

all right mate just intrested how much did it cost for the refurb and colour??

not done it yet, as need about 3 days without my car, so planning to tie it in with a holiday....but looking at 40 quid a tyre.....this is not powder cost...but think its good value for 160.....hopefully could barter him down to 150
