I think you will struggle with a colour match, good luck though, might be worth having them all done a different colour

The wheel specialists in Newcastle do our wheels for us, great quality work and a good price.

I'm in seaham, only need 1 doing, I'll try them then, didnt fancy going to wearside wheels, I know a good powdercoaters in durham, but no chance of the colour match. Would have had all four done if I had a spare set of wheels!
Thanks for the heads up PDT

Got a good & cheap powder coater in Leeds/Bradford... Hundreds of colours to choose from.  About £1.50 per inch... (i.e £27 for 18" rim) for cash.  3 day turn round too.

The tyre fitters round the corner will also do all the hard work removing wheel(s), tyre(s), fitting loan wheels and take your rims for coating for about £50

loan wheels are Bog std steel wheels that should fit standard setups.

Let me know if you want the details

Every time I have used Romax I have been dissapointed, they have about 3 colours and dont seem to care about what the customer wants, they take your wheels, dissapear out the back and dont discuss your expectations/needs.

Stella blast in durham do a good job, but same again with colour choice.....
I'm going to try and get to the place that PDT is on about next week to see what they can do.
Is that right you are doing Revo now at PDT? Have you ditched the custom mapping on the VWs?
Is it possible to get the free trial on the DSG ed30's?
