Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Who is regarded as the best for refurbishment of the 996 GT3 RS wheel with its ball polished outer and painted center ? I wont be using these wheels on the road anymore and am less concerned about longevity but would want the most original look. Any recommendations or experience would be helpful.

POST 5Original post

I had Chris at Exel Wheels refurbish my original GT3RS rims a few months ago and they are excellent. Highly recommended service and very reasonable considering the amount of work involved.

POST 6Original post

chris does not refurb the wheels.. he does use lepsons a lot.. depends if you want the rim painted silver or nick moss at early 911 can anodise the rim to prevent future corrosion however he wont paint the wheels due to the amount of prep involved
