Picked up the car from https://www.danmerrinwheels.co.uk/ yesterday, he's had it for 5 days. What a professional, kept me updated daily and sent loads of progress photos. I cannot believe the finish, the calipers are immaculate and hand sanded smooth. I can't believe the state of the rears that Jag allow on them in the first place.
The original wheels were faded and wouldnt shine up, the nuts were ugly, and the red calipers I have never liked:
He's fully stripped the wheels and put his amazing Gloss Black finish on, I've had the calipers done in Firesand Orange same as the bodywork, but with a black Jaguar stencil on all 4, wheel nuts blasted and finished satin black. Hubs freshley redone black too. Wheel caps I found off ebay!
Debadged some elements on the back - I may have those back on once black though.... The cat and S badge at the back are also black now and I love it! He's going to put some decent hi res photos on his instagram account later hopefully.
Refurbed wheels & Calipers - wow
Your car looks great and an impressive job on the wheels and callipers. I was going to leave mine with just the leaper in black but it looked a bit too asymmetric to me so I put the jaguar lettering on as well which I’m happy with. Left the other badges off. It’s all personal taste though isn’t it?

That photo has nailed it for me. I've just contacted Dan and will defo have it done !
Ots1 - love the caliper colour, looks fantastic. Like the way you added a photo of a dirty unwashed wheel/caliper combo and then the new, improved result, like the unkept, overweight person next to the fully toned gym model - are you in marketing
GusA - love the subtle union flag reflexion in your photo
