Thinking of powder coating Mk5 Original Monza 18s
« on: 09 March 2010, 22:46 »
Evening all,

Im in need of a very big refurb on my wheels soon but i have been thinking lately whether i should get them powder coated completely white with a red lip?..or get them powder coated back to original alloy finish with a white lip? Im wanting somthing a little bit different and would like to hear some peoples opinions :)..at present they are on my mk4 golf.

Thanks all.

personally i would leave the red strip out but thats just personal preference. would look nice but white would be a sod to keep clean on wheels. :undecided:
