There is a guy who works for wicked wheels who could turn up in his van and paint them for me which is starting tolook like the only viable option. He do them in silver, black or a grey which is a bit darker than the origonal insert colour.

.... :stupid: Somehow I doubt the results will be either very durable or even very good. Powdercoating is best done under more controlled conditions and with curing.

Check out A1 (Nigel) in Wolverhampton - He might have wheels to lend while doing yours.

Hope this helps  :smiley:

Cheers for the advice.
What is the difference between powder coating and painting the wheels?

Also, if anyone has pictures of their grey GTI with different wheel finishes i'd be interested in seeing piccies.

The place I used locally for my last set of rims doing did them in the same day. I took the car and left it then got a taxi back home. It cost me extra but in terms of quality and durability there were fine in the 3 years I had them. So good that I've taken my Monzas there too. I'm sure somewhere near you will do it or can't you by a cheap set of steels just to put you on maybe? Just an idea mate.
