I havn't been around these parts in a good 2 years since selling my banana boat and moving onto an Fn2 Civic, but I'm back on the lookout for another s2k again! Can anyone reccomend any for sale at the moment? Taking a look through donedeal and I'm only seeing 1 or 2 clean looking examples

Anybody know of anywhere that will paint a set of wheels?

Toying with idea of changing the colour of my wheels but not too sure on what colour to paint them..

Jonner - Check out www.wheelwizards.ie

I've just had the OEM wheels on my Passat reconditioned by them and the work seems top notch.
Not cheap, but they do seem to do it properly:
- Tyres & weights off
- Wheels acid-dipped
- Imperfections repaired/filled
- Powder coated (your choice of a few shades of Silver, or gun metal or I think bronze/gold)
- Oven Baked
- Wheel face & a little over the outter lip gloss coated
- Oven Baked
- Tyres & weights re-fitted, wheels re-balanced

Not cheap as I say though - starting at €250 for a set of up to 16"s - if you give the wheels in and collect a few days later, or €275 if you want em done same day (i.e. drive in drive out).
17s, 18's, 19s are more expensive - but note that its a 10% discount on the 4wheel price if you can drop off & collect a few days later.

Very friendly and helpful also.

Ask for Mark, and if you dont mine - mention Brendan with the black Passat referred you. Not likely to get a discount - but I might if I go back to them again! :D

I think it was Paul I had this conversation with before but we both thought a dark orange colour would look great on a blue S2000. Is that different enough?

Not a great pic and different blue to yours, but you get the message.
