Greenouse,

Am i correct in thinking the correct termanology is powder coating NOT painting? Seriously thinking about getting me RS4S done after seeing them. :cool:

How much did it cost you mate and what colour are they?
Cheers
Chris.

think he had them painted, powder coating is when a powder is applied to the wheels whilst an electric current is passed through the wheel, the wheels are then baked a little, i actually prefer the paint finish as it is generally smoother and looks better, but powder coat is more durable

Cheers for the answer Shaun  :wink:

They actually cost me nowt to get painted as I have a mate who owns a bodyshop. I asked him for a dark anthracite and he acheived the colour with a silver base and five layers of black laquer. He did ask me not to kurb them as he'd struggle to re-create the match  :embarassed:
