Turning Black??

[TUMPA]

Just wondering if anyone out there has had there GTO3 alloys coated black and shall i get it done?? Its a silver noble and i think this will make it look a little different. Also anyone know where i can get some black noble badges??

I used to have an Azure Exige with black wheels - saved alot of cleaning - I too have considered getting my GTO3 wheels painted black - esp. with this hosepipe ban - let us see a pic when your done!

Indeed i did, the company name will be on here somewhere, they picked them up and dropped them off a couple of days later, it was a good job.

Ring the factory and ask for stores. If they've made any they'll know.

Thomas, how did they deal with the faux plastic bolts - I presume they were removed before baking (if so did they double the labiour charge)?!

Im not sure how they were done but the company that did them said they should have charged me double, they didn't relise how long they would take. A bargain at £250.

Exactly - they need another hour per wheel to remove and replace those damn studs!

They look like GT03 wheels to me so haven't got the fake 3 piece bolts?

No mate but most of us have GTO3/M400 wheels so this is becoming a problem - I had Wicked Wheels over today and they wouldn't touch my Noble wheels (the Merc looks good though!).
