j.beesley Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Hi got a mk2 focus in the burgundy/dark red colour (debated widely by my friends) and am refurbing the alloys this weekend, question is, matte black? Or glossy/lacquered black? Opinions appreciated... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salsheikh Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Gloss black - look great once washed. if you dont fancy gloss black then leave the brake dust on and they will turn into mat black (only kidding!) you could always use plastidip and change them to matt black. have a look at my for sale thread and see what gloss black wheels look like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j.beesley Posted April 2, 2015 Author Share Posted April 2, 2015 I do like the glossy black as done them on my mates Mazda, I think im gonna go with the glossy as the laquer will protect the wheels a bit better, link to for sale thread?

Jon Bhoy Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Gloss without a doubt . Matt look ok if you Matt the whole car but just look so flat on a car especially that has metallics (Also you could then buy the gloss centre caps i am selling haha).
