Santiago refurb
« on: 16 February 2017, 16:09 »
Has anyone refurbished Santiago wheel to a solid colour ?  Matt black or anthracite ? I think they would look good but a bit reluctant to take the plunge yet ... my wheels are unmarked at moment... some pics would be nice if anyone has done this ...

That's because yesterday you were wishing you had a five door non red GTD and have forcibly blocked it out of your mind!  :lipsrsealed:

If it didn't need some bodywork and I could drive it properly without fear of a rear wheel letting go then I would definitely consider it at the moment :rolleyes:

How about this?

http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=278775.0
Exactly what I'm after !  But but was also thinking about black ... Eric is from Aberdeen, I'm 1/2hr north of Aberdeen... there is now. A place up near Aberdeen that dose 19" for £220  bare wheels or £270 just drop of the car .. and they have a huge range of colours and finishes ... there is a Matt black that has a slight metallic flake that looks really nice without looking bling !

I got mine done at The Wheel Specialist in Dyce

£270 is a great price if you can get them done for that

Just checked and I paid £419 :sad:
