Left the car into a local wheel refurbishment specialist today to have my Turbine alloys stripped back and then powder coated, resprayed & re-lacquered. This is to repair a bit of corrosion which is starting to show through on the spokes and a bit of kerb damage scrape on one! After much deliberation, have decided to keep them silver, mainly as the exterior trim is all chrome finish.
Missing her already.
What did you do to your ftype today

No. The refurbishment guy said it's quite common to start to see corrosion in this spot. He said it's because the sharp edge/corner at the back of the spoke makes it difficult for the original paint to adhere properly.
