Title: Monza II refurb poll
Post by: clive_gti on July 24, 2013, 03:42:01 pm

My Monza II's are starting to whiteworm, not really bad yet but i'm a bit fussy.  I can't decide on the finish to go for thought and need help, pics would be great on steel grey.

In general i'm not a fan of black alloys but they always seem to look better in reality than in photos, anyone have black Monzas on steel grey?

Don't think i'll go for powder coated finish, and most of the places i've talked to advise against diamond cut (although they can do it).

Diamond cut will just end up the same eventually.  I vote gunmetal.  Although I like the two tone finish of silver/black inserts.

I've had my 19" Monza's years and never had a whiff of white worm on mine??? :confused:

One member had his Monza's painted like Shadows. AMAZING FINISH, and you can't really tell they are painted.

I have some white worm and kerbing on mine and have thought about referbing them. I'm not a big fan of the painted/powdercoated Monza's and really love the diamond cut finish.

For me I would have to get them diamond cut again :happy2:
