nurrish Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Having recently bought a set of GT4 alloy wheels i really need one of the wheels refurbing as its badly kerbed and paint is flaking away. Wheels had been previously been powdercoated at lab tab in birmingham. I visited there today and got a quote of £70 +vat for the 1 wheel. I then found of local place to my work and they said they couldn't match the colour. But said they could redo all 4 wheels for £120.00 This is an example which struck me.... So would it make sense to do all 4 in this new colour??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwalker56 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Hi Nurrish, I have just had mine reconditioned and had a custom colour mixed up that looks similar to the pic. It was based on the GM colour but a shade darker and some course aluminium fleks added for extra sparkle. I love the finished result, car looks mean and they really sparkle in the sunlight. There are some pics here: http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=21393 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R800NER Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I wonder if they will do my LMGT4's for that price.... I doubt it though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwalker56 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 my LMGT4s cost £45 a wheel for a complete refurb and custom respray, they did a top job too. Was mates rates though i'm afraid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurrish Posted April 20, 2009 Author Share Posted April 20, 2009 all 4 wheels for £120.00 Where's that?? I'll get mine done on Fri if thats the kinda price Washford powder coating in redditch. They cost £35 a wheel but he would do them for £30 a wheel for me Only thing is though you need to get the tyres removed... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanS16 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Sweet, I'll pay them a visit. Need to get my rears removed anyway so i may as well get my fronts taken off. If I say I know "big breasts" Dave do you think I'll get it for £30? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
