It was a few months back now takes me an hour to get there, also they stole my cds from my car and denied it no way my car ever going back there again. I wrote several complaints too.
yeh anyway forget that I just want to move on from it as it really pisses me of even thinking about it!
Wheel colour is orange bored of teh black thing no one notices the car! It took me about 5 months to decide on a colour then 3 months to find a place that would powder coat them with sparkle affect. Still not found anyone to re fit the tyres yet as like alot of places that do wheel they do not want to touch the tyres and risk damage!

What about a White colour you could go for a White that has a bit of sparkle mixed in or maybe a cream that is a bit Matt in finish orange is not such an easy colour to compliment against other than dark hues, although you could advertise my company if you want my logo is orange and steel grey lol
I have found a set of audi s3 alloys that I want just need the spare funds!

no colour is set on orange taken me 6 months to organise this, seen orange on screwed skulls black mk4 on here looks great I am excited! Prob just do the calipers black now shame as the front ones I wanna show off.
paint the carriers orange then and the caliper black that way you get both colours and there seen more.
hmm good point don't want it to look too tiger like but that will work, best hunt for orange caliper paint online then! Thanks first sensible answer I got so far everyone just tells me not to go orange!
tyres removed at 8am wheels dropped of at 10am (glad the riots stopped as they were in the area!) was there for a good hour with Francis from Adept he showed me how it is all done answered all my questions chatted about cars etc very nice man. He does not have in stock the exact colour I need he is going to ask some friends ion the business or get some in and then post me a piece of painted metal see if I like it. Very good to find someone who going to all this trouble for me. He advised to go gloss not matte as brake dust ruins matte paint apparently. So wheel will take a while, I took my spare one in and got rid of the old tyre on it too he is going to see which ones come up best for me and paint 4 and my strut brace too. (no sparkle on the brace as it cost extra I'd rather not). I have not paid for the tyre removal yet they going to charge it all when I get the wheels back and they re fit them.
