White Pugs 6 Posted March 27, 2013 (edited) Hello All, Just thought i'd post a pic of my refurbed Superleggeras and my home made rattle can'd PTS centre caps... Colour is Pearl Grey and they were done by CAS Coatings in Bradford at a quid an inch - Bargain. Cheers James Edited March 27, 2013 by White Pugs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pug_ham 243 3 Cars Posted March 27, 2013 I've had several sets of wheels (& bike frames) done at CAS, usually a great job for a bargain price & a quick turn round. Looking good James, see them on the car at Harewood hopefully in a couple of weeks time. g Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AlexRS2782 136 1 Cars Posted March 27, 2013 Looks nice Reminds me that i must get my backside in gear and get the Speedline Corse wheels, i've had in the garage for months now, stripped back ready for a refurb. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anthony 1,002 Posted March 27, 2013 That's a bargain compared to what most places change these days, especially if the quality is as good as they look in the photo! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chipstick 382 1 Cars Posted March 27, 2013 That's very good value. Even more so considering that's inside and out. Was it a blast and powdercoating service? Do they fill any defects at all or is it only really for good condition wheels? A firm local to me are very good at what they do coating wise - but will only coat over a wheel after blasting with no actual refurbishment service offered which is a shame.

pug_ham 243 3 Cars Posted March 27, 2013 That's a bargain compared to what most places change these days, especially if the quality is as good as they look in the photo! It really is, shot blasted & powder coated for £15 on a 15"rim. They can spray a thick coat on some colours, on my bike frame I had to sand the paint on the headtube to get the gyro to fit over it last time but when I got it repsrayed late last year it fitted straight on with no problem. Only £20 as well. g Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chipstick 382 1 Cars Posted March 27, 2013 I paid £40 for a GTi6 inlet and the same not long after for a Caterham rear beam. Some places just appear to pull a price out of the air for random item opposed to working to a formula of area. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

welshpug 1,646 Posted March 28, 2013 I can get wheels done at £25 for a 15", same story just a blast and coat, they will file any sharp edges down if you want. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
allye 530 3 Cars Posted March 28, 2013 They look amazing already! For a full crack check and special refurb for the mag wheels it's £70, each. Ouch. Will be worth it though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
