My alloys being refurbed today (Wicked Wheels in Guidlford.) Looking forward to seeing them shine for the first time in many years !

They can't source the Honda "H" badges for the wheel centre caps and I've been quoted by Honda 17.50 + VAT EACH !!!!

Anyone suggest an alternative that wont cost to much. WW suggest I go to a signmaker and get some made up and then get them added and laquered.....

Standard 16" MY03.

Or has anyone got any in good nick they want to sell (maybe if you've changed up to a new set of 17s). I need all 4 as corrossion has attacked them all).

Also, what is the recommended cleaning treatment for powder coated wheels ?

 

In the same boat myself. Rest of wheels are ok, just those pesky centre caps.....

I'd expect

 

Me too, went from 16s to 17s and have the grey caps rather than the silver, look really naff.

 

I had wheels refurbed and purchased vinyl stickers from fleabay to add and laquer over.

 

The centre caps were available from hardtopguy much cheaper.

 

Can't find them on his site.....

 

My Honda dealer admitted there is a quality problem, all mine were scarred and had white blemishes within 2 years & 12k mostly dry miles.
Replaced all 4 FOC but car is still in warranty.

 

Car is back, wheels look great. Will get some pics up when I can take some photos in daylight.
But look very odd without the H on the centre caps. Thanks for advice on where to get them.

Guy at a Wicked Wheels said the best thing to do is to wax then then all the gunk and brake dust will stick to the wax and can then be washed off.
Anyone disagree ?

 

Yup, but get a proper wheel wax such as Poor Boys wheel sealent. You will need to top it up every three months.

 

Just ordered a set of wheel decals from ebay, item number 200311482009

The advert is for red decals, but I asked the seller and he's doing black ones for me........
