Powder coating

Post by Blueoval09 »

Having my standard alloys powder coated in the next week (16" 1st version 15 spokes fitted to the titanium) as i like the look of them but they're a bit scuffed. Already had my tyres changed onto some spare wheels from a mk2 mondy, was thinking either gunmetal metallic or black chrome, don't know what would go best with panther black tho!
