Post by: bcarlin on 14 November 2013, 22:07
Has anyone had there Monza shadows refurbished and do they last ok once they have been done ?
Or does anyone have a set for sale in mint condition. Tyres not important

chances are they will go again after refurb the unfortunate narture of diamond cut/laquered wheels

only thing you can do is ensure you keep your wheel wax topped up regularly, problem is you only need a pin head chip and its enough to let in the water and salt to start lifting the laquer again

Iv'e been wanting to know about the longevity of them once they are done. Will they ever be as good as when they are new?

Some companies give 12 month warranty on them but if they start to peel after 15 months then I don't think it's worth it.

I bought my GTI second hand and so previous owners did not keep waxed up and one was curbed. Now I have white worm starting on all 4 so Im going to get them all done together.

Lepsons I have heard good things about btw and is probably where mine will go

I've now got a brand new wheel fitted so I have one of the original marked wheels spare, I'm going to get this one refurbished to see if I want the other 3 done
