Refurbish LCR wheels

[Gubien]

Hi all!

I just had 4 LCR rims refurbished, aligned and corrected for marks etc. now it's painting time.

Everywhere I look here, I find threads with pictures linking out in the blue!

I have one in mind, a chap from here, Stefan has painted some Pewter Gray Metallic Clearcoat, Code: NH-537M

But I would like to see some other color variants, but still in the grey area )

Rules mine out then..lol

Sparkle Anthracite. Not sure what the code is but it's a black base coat with an anthracite grey coat with lighter grey sparkly bits.

Mine are all White

Actually like the orange coloer... nice provocative color ) The two-color alloys is fine, but i dont think it would match a buck standard black LCR

Ape's wheels are red, really suit the car.

what about going to halfords , and looking in theyre colour match books (behind the parts counter where they mix the paints

have the colours of all the manufacteres , i done that when i considered a respray for my old car , the lambo clours are nice

(not saying you have to buy from frauds , but can bluff them and say u will think about it , but write the codes down

do you guys notify your insurance company about the colour changes?

spose theres no harm in informing , but they are the OE wheels , just had them refurbished

I wouldn't bother with a normal refurb, but was wondering about people with major colour changed wheels. wondered if they told their insurance co's

I quite fancy white on my platinum grey (I know people think "yuck", but I like the idea).

That's a good point adiohead, I don't think I have said about the colour change. Everything else declared, but as they are OEM wheels didn't think about it. Probably best declared but wouldn't have thought the colour would make any difference really.
