Just dropped them off at CAS, Decent guys, very busy as you can expect.

They said they'd be ready friday so i will update then ! :D

Oh and despite what i said, i asked for Matt black, Apparantly Satin is the closest powdercoat so im having that.

Picked my wheels up today and i couldn't be more chuffed with them, The guys there a real helpful, he told me they had curbing which he smoothed off then coated them. They've come out awesome and i pay the bill.... £68 !!!!!

Only got these pics as had a busy day, i washed car tonight so ill grab pics of them/car clean tomorrow.

£68?!?!?

is that same price for powder coating any 1 piece 18s do you know? Painting mine seems pointless if i can get them 'coated for that

Mate i was going to repair/paint mine and paint/filler came up to £100.

Hence i jumped when i seen they did it that cheap, they powdercoat anything really. And wheels are priced depending on size but 18" should be £18 a wheel so its a bargain
