    Fuchs Refinishing

    Is there anyone locally who can refinish Fuchs wheels? I would like to get mine done with the Silver petals instead of the all black look and don't really want to send them away to 12 months to get done. Unless someone has a set they want to swap

    David Belford is your man Lyndon if you want them done properly, he even dips them like the factory did and has pretty much perfected the process

    Hope you have your wallet open though. Guys in Qld do a decent job but nothing matches what Dave does.

      What would he normally charge roughly per wheel? Tossing up between that, a set of Group 4 wheels or some Fuchs replica wheels and sell the wheels that are currently on it.

        Depulu Wheels are the guys (Gold Coast) that are in Queensland. I had 2 x Porsche Fuchs "dipped wheels" from the USA and got Depulu to match a couple of my wheels to them, plus they did another set of Fuchs wheels for me. my Porsche mates use them and all are super happy with the results. They strip, repair wheel if needed, and can true them up, then anodize and paint. Costs were about $650 a rim if good rim or $750 a rim if they needed work to make true and my turnaround was 2 weeks.

          Dave charges a bit more but gets the painting correct front and rear and has the outer lip and petals more polished which is factory correct

          The Depulu finish is nice but the same all over and that is not how they were at new.

          Dave is as close to Harvey Weidman finish that I have ever seen

          The pic shows 7's on the back but look at the 6's on the front outer lip more polished and black dipped paint line halw way to outside lip

            I used Depulu for my SWB in 2013 /14.

            I was happy with the quality, service and price ( 2K for 4 wheels including door to door freight and insurance in 2014).

            Having seen some of the wheels Dave Belford has done I can also vouch for his quality.

            I was happy with the job Depulu did for me - Id be equally happy with a set of Dave B wheels.
