Title: 'Painting' alloys
Post by: jamieall on 28 March 2008, 20:12

Hi Guys
Any of you had your alloys 'painted' in a different tone or colour? I guess powder coating is the most effective?
Got a candy white car on order and fancied charcoal or black chrome wheels. Anyone know anyone that can do this a quick search and I found these guys http://www.thewheelspecialist.co.uk/File/wheel-finishes.php
Any recommendations? Experiences?

Thanks

If you want your wheels painting then powder coating is the way forward. Much more durable than painting
