Hello folks.

Has anyone got their V Spokes repaired and looking OEM? Having had two returns before I know it's not easy with the diamond cut front as each time they take metal off.
Reason for me asking is I just went over Albert Bridge for the first time in the RS4 and going north->south the north width restriction is so tight I knocked the front wheel. Tiny damage but enough to bug me.

If it's not possible to get it looking OEM then I might be tempted to switch to rotors or figure out if you can return without the diamond cut face.

Thoughts and suggestions most welcome!

Just to make you aware, two of the Rotor designs also have the diamond cut finish.

Thanks Sam. I know. I am thinking the one (plain) design that doesn't. That being said, given the wide flat profile I'd imagine that the rotors don't have the same issue of one refurb making the wheel look totally <beep>.

You can have the v spokes refurbished and they'll be fine. I had an argument with high kerb and it looked ugly, but it was sorted without bother and you really couldn't tell.

Who did you use doodlebug? I am very OCD with these things!!

It was done through my stealer on the basis I could beat them up if it was <beep>. They used a company in Southend, who's name escapes me. They didn't have my eyes out either.

Leptons make a great job but I went for deleting the diamond cut on my rotors as they can only be cut once or twice before you loose the definition not sure about the v spokes but there is someone on here who did the same just deleted the diamond cut and looked good IMO

What I did just powdercoat over them couldn't be arse have the diamond cut again

Have you got pictures RSPJ / Brooner? I''m very tempted at the delete option. Interested to see them on the car too!

The dealer I bough from tried to give me a blue wheel they had resprayed which was a huge farce. Wouldn't trust them again. Lessons sounds like a good idea for a phone call.

Before and after

I think I am sold on the rotors. They look ace!
