My BMW Alloys and 18" Monzas Powdercoated
« on: March 11, 2010, 08:15:08 am »
If there is anyone considering Powdercoating thier alloys (and live in the Midlands) you may want to consider reading this thread;

http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=145839

I've also had the Monzas (18s) done in this finish. I'll post up a pic shortly.

Mention me and they may even smile  :smiley:

Regards, Anil.

Get what you pay for in this life, can't see how it's viable for them to do it at that price......... :confused:

I've had 3 sets done by them and all have been spot on. They work on volume turnover. They are always busy and was grateful for the work too. :happy2:

I've had the Monazs done and as soon I can wash the car, I'll post up alloy pics. :smiley:

Quick wash of the alloys (car still dirty :ashamed:).

FLASH ON


FLASH OFF (Natural sunlight)



Any questions, please ask.

Yes, its Sparkle silver although its dull in normal light. Yes, they do those other finishes.

They do look very good!  :happy2:

Must say I do prefer the machined finish though!  :wink:
