It will cost you approx. £250 to get them refurbed.

I would either sell them as they are or refurb them yourself and keep them/sell them then. Just follow bstardchilds guide

Otherwise you will not make much out of it!

im gonna follow bstardchilds DIY guide: http://www.tigerstyle.co.uk/poloforum/v ... hp?t=12633

If you work out the cost for the tools and the materials it wont be much, although there seems to be a lot of work involved.

However im sure that method is way more thorough and gives a nicer shine than any refurb shop.

Yeah, it will be more worthwhile to either sell them as they are, depending on the state you should be able to get around £300, if you have them refurbed then it will cost you around an extra £250 for the same finish and then the wheels will probably be worth £450 (as I'm sure some member on here sold his for iirc).

Its just that they're a bit rare mate, so they're always in demand! IIRC the Polo GTi was the only car to get these alloys, but some Euro-spec Lupo GTis might have had them.

They're also hard to come by in good condition and cos they're split rims they cost a fortune to refurb. I managed to get some in the end, in amazing condition. Thanks again KennyG! :D
