Post by: monte on October 28, 2011, 12:15:01 pm: Are your Monzas 17" or 18"?

If they are 18" I'd seriously consider getting them refurbed :happy2:

Greeners and Saint Steve have or have had some gorgeous 18" Monzas :notworthy:

I curbed one of mine last night and now need them refurbed. I was thinking of powder coating them anthracite or black, car is candy white. What do you think ?

Mine are original Detroits, but you could achieve just as good with a refinish.

Are they lacquered?

They're a satin finish, so quite matte. I assume they have a lacquer on them.

Post by: sub39h on October 28, 2011, 05:29:28 pm: my Pescaras are up for sale.

they're basically CHs without "MOTORSPORT" written on them.

they're cheaper than VZs too, so you have some change to get them refurbed in black with a silver lip, and OEM quality to boot. check out my FS thread, they'll be off my car very soon :happy2:
