Nice man! How much roughly did that set you back to get them sprayed?

Theres a place in stockton on tees (not far from yourself) called romax. They powdercoat any colour u want. They charge by alloy size, 17" cost £55 per wheel. Well worth it tho! They do a top job and get your car back within a few hours

If you could get to Nottingham for the day I could get your wheels powder coated black for £100 through work
 
Almost there :) wrapped wing mirrors next?

Is this offer open to anyone?

Habe a 2.0 tdi fr candy white and live near Nottingham would love a powder coating of wheels.

Pm if interested
 
Can't pm you but if you email me pic(s) of the wheels and let me know what size and colour I'll find out for you. You see where I work we sub contract parts we make for Bang and Olufsen to a place for powdercoating so will see what price they come back with, black is cheaper as that's the colour they use normally so quoted me £25 a wheel so other colours could vary.

What mudflaps do you have and do you have a link if you don't mind me asking :)
 
They were already on the car when I bought it dude, so I assume they were dealership. From what I've heard they aren't cheap like (could be because I'm tight and like to see lots of things for my money haha)
 
Just had this photoshopped. I'm pretty impressed in fairness (excuse the rusty disks haha)

What do other people think? Deffos thinks that I need new mirror covers to go likeee

Keep your silver wheels mate, make it look like steel wheels with the trims fallen off.

Car is really smart mate
 
So I had a go at wrapping my chrome surround with carbon fiber, and sprayed my wing mirrors myself - pretty happy with how it went to be honest

Had a ****ed spare alloy, and a can of spray left, so went a bit wild...

Couldn't be arsed to change it back so was bezzing around for a couple of days with one black alloy, only realised that the wheel was buckled and i had a directional tyre on the wrong way round :thumbup:

In two minds whether to get them done black now... the calipers are a definite repaint job as they look horrific.

Quite like the silver if I'm honest, but I also am quite the fan of them black, urggg!
 
Only problem with black is it can make your alloys just look like the hub caps have fallen off .. See if someone can photoshop them anthracite or gun metal grey? :)

Yeahh, I sprayed it just for an idea what it would look like, which tbf looked shite as it i had one black and the rest silver :/ yeah I didn't really consider them colours in fairness, though I'm not sure how well it'd go with the all of the other bits being black :think:
 
Yeah 1 black and 3 silver wouldn't have helped your decision! Haha and tbh they go quite well I've seen a few cars with it (mainly astra mk5's as that's what I have and against the black car it looked good mate :)
