I've used it and it was an exact match +++

Then added 3 coats of the following to finish it off with good results...

Hey thanks for that looked up brand on ebay aswell but this company is free delivery so works out cheaper, i will order the primer aswell as theses 2.

so tomorrows job is get the bad wheel off get some wet and dry poss some polish compound, buffer pads as im in to minds to a full polished wheel or painted spokes and polished rims.

if anyone has done a refurb or knows other things i could do with or how to go around doing it shout up.

Hi A8_Owner,

I used the repair guide here (http://www.autopia-carcare.com/realwhda.html)to do it. It worked a treat.

The guy that did it - NASAracer on auidworld - has moved the pictures from his original post hence linking to Autopia who have integrated the exact procedure into their site.
