Only thing with a one off shade is, say you need to get one refurbed will they be able to replicate it again so it doesnt standout?

i had mine done in manchester at a place called the wheel specialist, they have an offer on at the mo 4 for the price of three, mine were a dearer finish than a standard powdercoat, called smoked chrome,





its a black coat with silver on top of that, pics look rubbish but in daylight they look a sort of mettallic anthracite, they have franchises all over britain and were done in 2 days and i told them no rush!

I use these guys, http://www.wickedwheels.co.uk/
they come out and do it at your work place, they have special spraying bays in their vans and ovens too, so they leave the car and its ready to drive. they also offer warranty on them, so if they flake or chip they will re-do them for free.
