Kerbed wheels are the Algarve's most democratic damage — cobbled towns and tight resort parking spare nobody. The good news: a scuffed wheel refinishes at €125, a fraction of replacement money, and comes back looking factory. The honest news: not every wheel type repairs the same way, and we'll tell you which yours is.
A standard painted alloy refinishes predictably: welded if needed, primed, colour-matched, lacquered — €125 per wheel. Diamond-cut wheels are the honest exception: that machined bright face can only be re-cut a limited number of times before the wheel runs out of material, and the white-worm corrosion that creeps under their lacquer needs treating early. We assess what your wheel actually is and what it can take before promising anything — sometimes a full repaint is the smarter end of a diamond-cut's life.
“A diamond-cut wheel only has so many re-cuts left in it before there's no metal left to machine — I'll tell an owner honestly when repainting beats re-cutting, even when re-cutting sounds like the fancier answer.”
Final scope and price are confirmed at inspection — these are honest public anchors, not teaser rates.
Wheels-off is the efficient moment for the rest: brake calipers cleaned and painted, tar and brake-dust baked onto the barrels properly removed, a ceramic coating on the faces that makes every future wash half the work. The brake reconstruction and Land Rover wheel restoration in our portfolio are exactly this package.
If one wheel is kerbed, one wheel gets repaired — colour-matching the finish to the other three is our problem, not yours. A full set refinish makes sense when the lacquer is failing everywhere or you're changing the look; we'll tell you which case you're in after seeing the wheels, not before.
Kerb-damage refinish: €125 per wheel at JustCars, colour-matched and lacquered. Diamond-cut work is quoted after we see how much material the wheel has left — honestly.
Yes, but with limits: each re-cut removes material, so a wheel only has so many in it, and white-worm corrosion under the lacquer must be caught early. We'll tell you whether re-cutting or repainting is the smarter route for yours.
No — we colour-match the repaired wheel to the other three. A full set only makes sense when the lacquer is failing everywhere or you want a new look.
Yes — wheels-off is the right moment: calipers cleaned and painted, barrels degreased, and optionally a ceramic coat on the faces that makes wash day twice as fast.
Oleg & the team did a fantastic job restoring my 1995 Jeep Wrangler — on budget, on time and exactly as promised, with regular photos and updates throughout. Excellent job. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend and use again. 5*
A huge thank you to you and your team! My car has never looked so clean! Just Cars did an amazing job making my car look brand new. It was full of sand, dirt, food — everything the kids could possibly put in it, and years since its last proper detail. Just Cars was amazing. A huge thank you!!
My wife and I have been using Just Cars for a while now and always find the service fantastic — very professional and helpful. They've done numerous things for us, from valet to fitting stereos and mechanical work. Would highly recommend them.
I've had a great experience with JustCars — definitely a place I'll be coming back to! A professional team with friendly, down-to-earth people who clearly care about the quality of their work. Keep it up, guys — wishing you all the success!
The guys did work on the Ferrari and they did a great job — thank you!
Oleg is great. I bought a used BMW X5 from a private seller and the aluminium centre console had a few scratches. Oleg made it look brand new with a flawless wrap. Highly recommended.
So glad I found Just Cars. Oleg and his team sorted a small issue with my car's finish within 24 hours — and they're specialists in every kind of car maintenance. Highly recommended.
We had a tricky problem — removing dried-out vinyl lettering from our van that even the signage company couldn't manage. Alek quickly came up with a solution and the work was high-quality and super fast. Recommended for excellent professionalism.
When you love your car, go to Just Cars!!! What they do is truly amazing. When you collect your car it's better than picking it up from the Porsche dealership — and far better protected. Steven
