Hope you guys have had a great summer with the R8... just wanted to share an R8 we had in recently for wheel refurbishment. Originally the customer came in to have the wheels done completely in gloss black, which is great, but sometimes you loose the wheel on a white car and the unique shape and lines can't be seen. We advised to have the inner windows black and then re-machine the face. Turned out great we think.

All work done in house!

Here some pics. Let us know your thoughts.

There are also some examples of other R8's we have had in for similar work.

Yes they are done shortly after. Just popped back in for the pictures.

Will post again when the pictures have been sorted.

They look awesome however do you find the lacquer comes away quickly and looks tatty as it can't bond to the alloy... i also found this happened with my new Vossens i had on my 911...

These guys do all my wheel refurbishment, tyres & wheels.

Can vouch for their work being top notch and I'm a pain in the arse for being fussy!

Keep up the good work guys
