Refurbing and Painting Alloys Black - Devalue the Car?

[J-Key]

I want to get my Ph1 15'' alloys refurbed and get them sprayed in black.

Will this de-value the car? Any one know any where local to herts, beds, bucks that can do this?

 

[whatisjustis]

It shouldn't devalue the car at all. At the end of the day, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Some may be willing to pay that little bit more for the car with those wheels come sale time, some less.

tbh i doubt itd make much difference at all value wise

hazza can refurb if you trust him

As above really, when you come to sell some will want it standard and some will go nuts for black wheels.

wont cause any devaluation mate, had black wheels on my Impreza, people seemed more impresed with the fact the wheels were black!..

I want to do this with the turinis on my cup, local tyre place reckons they can refurb and paint the wheels for £35 a wheel. I am sure some people will say the turinis are meant to be silver, but black will be easier to keep clean and will also go nicely with a carbon bonnet from k-tec
