Hey Guys,

As you all know the Lexus alloys tend to corrode, I have a quote to get them refurbed for 250 quid which also includes getting them painted.

I need your opinions on what colour to get it, I want a very chic and stylish look ;) I was think white, gun metal grey, black, blue anything really but need it to be the dogs bullox.

What colour would you guys do it??? Also is Matt better or Metallic or what else????

Thanks
Omid

Here is the car with the alloys, they are original 17s

I'd have them back to original. A Lexus needs to look original, not like a cheap boy-racer conversion.

250 is steep though. I paid 160 to get ours refurbed last year.

Where did you get yours done?? and are you happy with them??

I defiantly do not want a boy racer, just some touch of elegance to it.

I vote for original in the high gloss.

I had my all 5 done for 150 at a powder coting company in B'ham.

top job....

good luck...

Im in West London, but obviously can travel, any recommendations on where to get them refurbed as apparently my price is waaaay too high.

Cheers

There is a guy near Windsor, Warfield to be correct. I think they're called Warfield wheels or something and based in the centre of the village next to the car wash (you can't miss them).
