Can these be zinc plated?

[Djw John]

@Djw Dave has some wheel bolts for his evo that we think are alloy, but just not they're blue which on a white car with red calipers is quite the look.

Do you think these could be plated to change the colour of them?

@Phase1sr im looking at you here!

Probably.

But if not, they look like ally so they should be anodizable

Would have to get the anodizing off first i'd imagine.

Hey mate.

If they are alloy then no they can't be plated.

To colour alloy it has to anodised mate.

If you want to post them out I could probably get it sorted for you (would have to check with my guy but blue should be fine).

Just buy new ones?

Oh, that would be most good! Could he do black or silver at all? What sort of price?

Paul, he probably could but £80 for some kinda hurts when these are fine but look w**k! They're rays bolts for his rays wheels. #japcrap

You'd lose the rays engraving anyway wouldnt you?

Sorry just realised that you don't want them re-doing blue! Black and silver will be standard so either will be easy, any colour is possible if you have the dye but I'm not sure what he keeps in.
No charge probably, just cover the postage.

I'll have a word tomorrow and drop you a message.

Superb thanks Joe. We'd at least make sure a few drinks can be bought as reward!
