For speedlines, there is a guy that posts on here and pistonheads that does excellent work, he will do your wheels exchange.

Doesn't magnesium go porous and brittle over time? My father has some genuine works BMW CSL (Batmobile) minilite magnesium wheels sitting on a shelf.

Yup, then it needs stripping, treating, passivating, coating and then painting again.

Jup, and that's why I need someone who is truly able to do it.

 

Have contacted Speedline in a hope someone in Italy (which is pretty close to me) does it, but they don't know any.

 

Cheers
