ZCP Love

Does anyone have any recommendations for refinishing the zcp wheels? I have zero curb rashes but a lot of imperfections from baked on brake dust. I want to refinish them so they shine like the first day but I'm worried I won't get the exact same color and shine the oem wheels come with?

What do you guys think my best bet is?

i have gone thru the drama of wheel shops that cant fulfill their promises. My advise is find a shop that somebody has already used. if you have a good body shop that you use, ask them for reference, as body shops only use wheel repair guys who can match OE.

I recently refinished a set of 359M wheels, and a shop tried 2x to match and failed epically. I ended up using my regular shop that i use at my body shop, and they had to chemical strip the wheels to get all the shitty paint off, and then refinish. they did a PERFECT job, and it cost me $$$.

This is exactly what I do NOT want to happen.. a shop promising me one thing and then I receive a wheel that is nothing like I wanted. That's why I'm extremely hesitant.. maybe I should try selling my wheels as is and purchasing a brand new set.. lol

If you were local i would refer you to my guys, they really did an awesome job fixing first shops fuckup.

now for what i paid to have it done 2x, i could have bought a new pair of rear wheels ( bought and refinished a whole set just to use the rears...).

Just bought my baby this past October.

2013 Jerez ZCP here.

Just spent ~17 hours doing a full paint correction. Really happy with the results. Also, did BE rod bearings and a Corsa exhaust.

Wow! That paint job is amazing! I might have to spend at :threadjacked:some point on paint correction myself.

Thanks! I hope it's easy to maintain as long as I stay up with it. I almost want to keep it in the garage.

^ that is the perfect stance on zcps. What's your ride height?

Agreed. Curious on overall specs (spacers, suspension, tires). Could be just me trying to look on a phone screen, but the tires look a tiny bit stretched?

Thanks! And what do you mean "Malek MRF Setup"? Did he just install it or is it a different setup form just regular h&r spring install?

Where do you guys find someone selling just the rears? Or are you purchasing just tears from a company ?
