Lotus Eclat wheel PERFECT refurb

I bought a set of Lotus Eclat wheels off a mate. They were relatively unkerbed but had been shot blasted by a monkey at a heavy plant yard. Pitted to curse word doesn't come close. I decided to have them professionally done and got turned down by several places. Some companies said they could polish them but I'd have to do the black.

Well, in the end Wicked Wheels (www.wickedwheels.co.uk) said they'd try and dispatched one of their drivers to collect the rims from my doorstep.

This is what they looked like originally:







Within 5 days they arrived back on my doorstep. Wicked Wheels had phoned me to discuss what I wanted doing. They black powdercoated the entire wheel, then machined the polished surfaces back into the wheel. They said that they could lacquer the polished finish but the Eclats were never originally supplied that way. I was happy to break out the Autosol every so often, so this is what they look like now:







I was so chuffed with the neatness and quality of them I nearly wanted to make intercourse with them. But didn't. The black edges are flawless, the backs are all black coated, and they are as good as I think you could get Eclats. Obviously I won't be putting them on an Eclat. Either my Volvo 340 or perhaps the Allegro sleeper project.


Thought I would post up here to recommend them all day long for wheel resto and great service.
