Nope - A guy in the use had soem done purple!

A word of caution - get them powder coated and then laquered rather than just sprayed.

The sprayed ones a susceptible to the paint chipping from stones or lifting around where the bolts go as you tighten it.

As to colour - on a Dark car I think lighter colours work best - that black chrome looks

Hi chaps and ladies,My wheels need sorting now, as there are a few scrach marks and kerb chaps!!

Ok i can get the four wheels done for a 120 squid yes thats for all four!!!
so im getting them done,But what colour should i do them!!I like the silver but i fancy a change and at that price, a full change back is not going to break the bank!! Fancy graphite but not sure if they would suit or look right!

Car is Moonrock with black inside!
Any thoughts ?

I'd like to see if the '04 wheels looked like Mugens in bronze!

Think it would work with Moonrock.

Black does look cool...



Had them done at top marques in Stoke, nice guy in charge, and really makes sure the wheels are perfect before you collect.
