    Very happy with the finish. New panels and the paint and gaps are seamless.

    The wheels are the wrong colour which I was told would be the case. Getting a perfect match would have pushed it into a total loss apparently. All four have been refurbished well however. I've got someone lined up who can match the original finish, I just need to find a set of loan wheels or get a temp car.

    I have a set of wheels you can borrow?

    Im in Sw london if thats any good to you?

      Really appreciate the offer but i'm up in the grim North.

      I think i'm going to end up getting insured on the family run-around for a week or so and just borrow that whilst mine are absent.

        When I had my wheels refurbished, the garage arranged for a cheap hire car for a couple of days. Picked it up at drop off etc - easy.

          That would be useful but unfortunately i'm not having them done by a garage, they are a bodyshop and some 200 miles away!

                Thanks Adam, mine were bought via ebay.

                Pretty sure it was these exact ones, they certainly look identical. The fit is excellent on mine.

                  I purchased those same ones 6 months ago and they look fine and fit well, better than I expected for the money and haven't faded or anything
