suprasurrey Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Almost finished refurbishing some Volk GTC`s bought from p111ddy a good while ago. I`ve polished 140 chrome bolts, machined out dents in the wheel nut covers, machined new centre nuts from aluminium billet, reassembled and torqued all the rims and fitted new valve assemblies. I`m now waiting patiently for the spray shop to finish the wheel nut covers. Sorry about the TRD decals but I couldn`t find Rays ones anywhere:d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexM Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 I thought that was a TRD oil cap for a minute. They're looking nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suprasurrey Posted September 24, 2009 Author Share Posted September 24, 2009 they look sweet, how bad was the damage before? Really need to get mine refurbed.Rims were in fair condition with a little curbing and corrosion, centre nuts were beyond repair hence the need to machine new ones. If you are going to take the refurb route you could save roughly £25 per rim if you split and rebuild the wheels yourself;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Sorry about the TRD decals but I couldn`t find Rays ones anywhere:d Looking good, Rays sell new centre caps if needed, they're not exactly cheap though. http://www.rays-msc.com/html/option_parts.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
