Refurb cost for 997 Carrera sport wheels ?

£200 a wheel is way too expensive.

Pretty sure last time I had mine done it was approx £100 a wheel with Chris :thumb:

Al depends on what finishes etc you want :mrgreen:

I'm just about to get my alloys done and expecting to pay £65/corner. That's tyres removed, totally stripped, powder coated, balanced and back on the car.

Yep, same. I supply the wheel and tyre as its quicker. Three day turnaround. Last refurb was £240 all in....
 
Have used Lepsons several times very pleased with the service - prices do seem to have gone up a bit recently - but then I think the last set I had done were 18"s , 19"s are obviously a bit more. Their web site is very clear re: pricing and the people in the office have always been very friendly to deal with.

I just contacted these guys today as they are quite local. To refurb and colour my Carrera 2 alloys £65 plus vat each corner.
 
Also can anybody recommend a company that sprays/colours calipers. Mine have lost all colour so while I'm getting the wheels refurbished, I may as well get them sorted out as well. A company around the North West that do both would be great, if anybody has any recommendations.

Cheers
 
Thanks for the link, I missed that. Unfortunately no recommendations close to me, I'll keep looking.
Thanks

Sorry to bring up an old thread but I was just wondering if you got your wheels refurbished at diamondtrims or not. I'm still mulling over whether to get mine refurbed and coloured with them. Photos would be great.

Thanks Malcolm. Grooster - yes I did. Trust me, you'll be over the moon with their work, its flawless :thumbs:
 
It does indeed look a fantastic job, I think I'm going to bite the bullet.
Thanks
 
I guarantee you won't be disappointed.
