EPIC FAIL Danny, its work on my PC. I thought you were an IT dude? :D

Wheels were going white and I was going to get creative with vinyl.
Then was thinking a fluo color - yellow, green or orange.
Now I've something else in mind. The powder-coating I want done has an effect but the main color can be bought from graff-city. Depending on price of the powder-coating, I might just rattle can them

Vinyl would be fine I would think. Never tested brake dust/road grit on it lol, but don't see why that would affect it.

Mmmm, that's what I'm thinking, I'll probs change my mind again and I don't want to pay out for powdercoating and have the hassle of getting the tyres off and on and also I don't like relying on other people to get things done on time!

I think this time I'll rattle can it the color I had in mind for the coating. Cheap and easy.

Danny intro'd it to me, I'm guessing its a graffiti paint website, but the paint is cheap and the choice is immense!

Oh and I have just had my ball joints put on my desk! Ordered them midday yesterday :cool:

I think vinyl would be fine, we'll see, might end up adding some vinyls anyway.

On the verge of ordering, but really can't make my mind up 100% :D
