Cheers

I've seen people get it done for as little as £80, going rate seems to be about £220 or so.

 

[Tunst]

different places different prices, but around my parts its £55-£65 per wheel

 

[lizard899338]

ouch for £200 - £300 might as well buy a new set

 

[Tunst]

Try it urself? thats what im doing with mine, see how they turn out

As above, theres a pretty good guide in the guide section.

Its not a shed it just doesnt look pretty atm

im giving it ago myself iv rubbed down 1 wheel but the edges still have marks in them and they will take ages to get rid of so i might filler them but unsure yet :S


how did you do yours?

 

[_WILL_]

So I take it powder coating is the way forward then?

Will they look the same as painted ones as I will prob only get one done at the moment, then I can worry bout getting them all done and perfect in the future!

Sand off the kerbing and then take them to a powercoater. Mine was about 120 for 5 in black.

 

[Rob]

Sand like f**k mate, whats the harshes paper you're using atm? I had to go back to a 40 grit aluminium oxide paper, if that fails an electric sander works a treat or a drill bit attachment.
