crapichris Posted February 22, 2011 Report Posted February 22, 2011 what is the cost of refurbishing a set of tatty Capri RS wheel rims? I am wondering whether to buy new or get mine reworked. I have one rim that is a bit bashed, one a bit corroded, and the other three look ok to me. Any recommendations in the Luton area?
dacar Posted February 22, 2011 Report Posted February 22, 2011 Up to 15" wheels the going rate starts at £40+VAT per wheel. Capri alloys have recently been on here and ebay for less than £100 a set. Speedshack advertises £57 a wheel. Look about for a set.
Dazzler 666 Posted February 22, 2011 Report Posted February 22, 2011 Hello mate. Can't say how much in Luton but I have a set of 5 spoke 17" rims on my other car and they cost £50 each whihc included getting the kurb damage repaired and then painted in a moondust silver (which I think looks cool! ).
crapichris Posted February 22, 2011 Author Report Posted February 22, 2011 at £50 a corner I am thinking about having a go myself. Might not be as neat as the factory jobs but at least if they are damaged I won't cry so much. Too many potholes and speed humps in Luton for a really top quality job. Anyone got any tips for DIY?
