Post by: AnilS on March 11, 2010, 08:15:08 am
If there is anyone considering Powdercoating thier alloys (and live in the Midlands) you may want to consider reading this thread;

I've also had the Monzas (18s) done in this finish. I'll post up a pic shortly.

Mention me and they may even smile  :smiley:

Get what you pay for in this life, can't see how it's viable for them to do it at that price......... :confused:

I've had 3 sets done by them and all have been spot on. They work on volume turnover. They are always busy and was grateful for the work too. :happy2:

I've had the Monazs done and as soon I can wash the car, I'll post up alloy pics. :smiley:
