KEYNE ON DUBS

hi guys,

im looking for a decent company to refurb my new wheels. i have just picked up a set of porsche 3 piece split rims and am looking to get the centres powdercoated and need to get the lips touched up and polished.

any help would be great thanks

Pristine wheels or try a bodyshop if your just painting the centres. Are they the beta porsche splits -17 or 18? Pics please

what are pristines prices like? will they polish the lips up? and ideally was looking to get the centres powdercoated as that is surely a more hard wearing option?

i will have to try to upload the pics in a bit.

they kind of look like these not exact. they are 18" and 8" fronts and 10" rears

I got mine polished at Rainbow in oldbury - they did a brilliant job and prices are very reasonable. And i painted the centres with a ratlle can.

Pic below of said rims best pic i had at hand.

the wheels looks awesome mate.the polished lip is brilliant and the centres look real good. you get the cans made up? how many coats of primer, base coat and lacquer did you use.

im tempted to do mine myself. wasnt sure if it was worth getting them done properly if price was low enough.

how much each where the lips if you dont mind me asking.

you work on the same site as rick dont you? swear i have seen your car there before.

it varys slightly but i got mine polished included centres nuts for bout £70. And i got the paint from MK Paint perfect colour match. This was the first time i ever painted anything with a rattle can but they came out pretty good.

I work next door to rick mate. By anychance do you have back mk4? cos i saw a modded one at stable picking up something not long back.

thats a really good price. i have been trying to clean my bolts up. trying to clean 160 bolts is taking its toll lol.

yeah that would have been me last time i was there i was picking up a tailgate i gave to rick to do some work on.

were your polished lips in good condition when you gave them to rainbow? think 2 of mine need touching up before polishing.

a couple of them had chunks out the rim and i pointed this out to the old boy and hes said i will sort it. Week later boom! they looKed great!

Go on there website i think they could polish - re-chrome them too.
