    They will be easy to do yourself, a trip to a motorfactors to get sandpaper, undercoat, silver wheel paint and laquer might cost €30 to do all 4.

    I haven't a clue if someone would restore steel wheels for you but check alloy refurb places.
    Possibly car washes can do something, but it's cheapest to do it yourself.

    Alternatively splash out on used alloys. Check donedeal and adverts.ie for prices.

    There's a few dings in the lip of the steel wheels where somebody kerbed them so I don't have the weaponry required to unbend the lip.

    But I have the sandpaper, undercoat and paint. Will need to get lacquer.

    I'll take a photo and post tomorrow. I've done a bit of wire brushing on them today and they are coming back to life a bit.
