| I'm thinking of having my wheels powder coated over the winter. Has anyone done this and got pics. I took my bike in this morning for it's MOT and got chatting to a with a 1500 drifter that had just had it done. Looked really good. Only £180 for the pair. | |

| I've seen it done in pictures, but never close up, did the drifter have all the wheels done? hub,spokes and rim or just certain parts, Sounds interesting Rattler, I wouldn't mind having my rims and hubs black but keeping silver spokes. | |

| The Drifter had hubs, spokes and rims done. Looked well good. The bike shop strips it down, sends it off for powder coating and puts it back together with 3 day turn around. | |

| I have a friendly contact who has access to powder coating facilities. If people are interested I'll ask if he wouldn't mind doing this and at what price | |

| Things are looking good. The last time my contact had a frame done it cost £120 for shot blast and powder coat. I have a name and contact number so will make the call during the week and see what we can do with the wheels. | |

| Right Chaps. I've had a chat and it appears we can get a very good price from my man.
The guy you want is Colin at Collingbourne Coatings and he will shot blast and powder coat wheels for £45 per wheel. Obviously at that price you need to get them there and collect them but that is half the price that Rattler has been quoted.
The contact details are:
Collingbourne Coatings Ltd
Bourne Works,
High St,
Collingbourne Ducis,
