Ginger60 0 Posted May 6, 2006 Hi there Does anyone know if the BK299s can be refurbed cost effectively? Mine are a bit scuffed. Some guy told me the split rim effect studs are made of plastic... :!: :?: so makes the refurb impossible and the mirror effect edge would be painted over too... :cry: Any help would be fantastic otherwise im gonna have to save up for new rims... :drinking: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bristolbaron 10 Posted May 6, 2006 TBH, i wouldn't bother. if youre thinking of changing soon anyway, you wont get close to getting back the refurb cost if it can be done. a couple of sets in good nick have gone on here for no money. get saving!! :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bristolbaron 10 Posted May 6, 2006 Ginger69, just reread my post and it sounds a little harsh :oops: but i'd still say putting money towards new wheels would be best option.. check german ebay for the best prices! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
