Re: SHOW US YOUR WHEELS !!! (no turinis or stds ) Lets see something different !!
This is awesome, im tempted now for our car here. Are they easy to come by? still make these?
Sounds like you want a good detail, and polish, oxidisation on the clear coat maybe. Might clean up ok.......pics would help, as fogging of the clear coat can be a sign its about to fail and peal.
Cheers for the mention matey :)
Yep ph1 bumpers are crazy expensive, BRAND NEW (BARE) Ph1 front bumper £810 sprayed from us........part alone is RRP £720
Depending on condition, £150 - £200 to spray a used one, depending on condition and colour required.
Cheers,

By who? Side strips 70 , mirror caps 45 , front bumper insert 85, rear 95 , plus p&p,smooth finish, you'll get cheaper but depends what quality of job your after.
Cheers chaps,
Well we have perfect fit mask, months ago it took a hell of a along time to do, due to the curve of the bullets, but once its done thats that. We use an air brush so we get the very thin on the letters so it doesnt look lame. Gone on the days where we use hand painting for...
Well depends what your looking for IMO, back to as new or "reasonable" or "perfect", its a big big job to do a 1/4 so its back to new, cutting it out welding new one back in, smoothing it off, making sure the lines right and everything lines up perfect, blending the side, and unless its done by...
Ok i stand corrected, mine 100% has a GB sensor, one i can see it and i had ABS problems and the clip told me 3/4 were duff (was major wiring issue), but no issues with speedo even tho the ABS thought i was skidding constantly under braking. I have no idea why it has both, but im glad it does lol
Have you checked it doesnt have one first? its a myth if you ask me (my 172 none cup 100% has one and has abs), only place you can read speed from consistantly is the GB.
i wouldnt, you'll have to strip it down very very well and mask all the threads and unless you find someone who will put the Powder coat on very very well its likely to be silly thick and clog up the caliper, care will have to be taken as you only want it on the front face really i guess (the...
Welcome Zoe :) Car pictures, even if standard are always required......have a looksy at our web site, to see what we do if you dont want your car standard.
Powder coating isnt as UV resistant, black soon becomes grey and they loose there shine. Some wheel refurb places laquer the powercoat afterwards to get a better shine, but this defeats the purpose of a durable finish lol..........Its the devils coating........
I cant quote in threads, but we are slightly more expensive but we've done a few, prep is everything with them due to the oil residue and constant engine heat and cold. (We also spray on decals etc for extra). The price will no doubt go up when he see's it....theres alot of prep in doing...
Plastic primer x2 coats, sand inbetween. Flame red or 713 (i think) requires a ground coat x 2 coats, then atleast 2 coats of base coat to get the right colour. Will cost far more doing it yourself, than having it done professionally and look no where near as good or the right colour.
