Forum wheel bolts

[Phil the Brit]

Do these still exist as my bolts are awful and want to get them chromed. Also now looking at a company who do coloured ones, will probably buy a sample and see it in the flesh first.

I have a spare set, depends on where you are, you're welcome to borrow them.

Edit: just saw Essex, so can't be too far away. PM me if you're interested.

There is a set already at the chromers in you want to save on postage etc

Hi Guys
Can someone tell me who the chromers are who have them and also how much they charge, how I go about getting a set done, presumably I pay them, they ship them to me and I send my old ones back for the next guy. Can anyone confirm please
Regards
Phil

Hold on Phil...will post them up

Ask for David, mention the forum, they have a set there already....the price has gone up, think they are looking for £80 for set of 20...ensure they don't chrome down shaft of bolts and get chrome into thread

I have also sent an enquiry to these guys to see if we can get a better price, so if you can hold on for a few days Phil and see what they say, they were recommended off another forum

Anyone know of anyone else we can ask?

[Parisien]

Or what about this option..........

And, of course, Sprogs. Which I tend to think is better value and as soon as I get my wheels done....

This is what they want to rechrome...........nay....rather solidifieds the cars for the S/S set!

Around £9-10ea + vat.

[Phil the Brit]

I can wait a few days, not urgent but the rusty bits of metal do look rubbish and not befitting such a nice car!

 

[Parisien]

Another quote from -

The price will be £6.50 each plus vat irrespective of numbers.

So basically the current guy does them for around £80 ( never ever let them use an airgun ...always a hand driven wheelbrace!!!!)...the others are double plus the price; if you're going to keep car fro more than two years, go down the S/S route.

I need to get mine done too, starting to look tatty. Assetto Corsa wheels, is there other options other than chrome, stainless perhaps? though that might not be suitable.

 

[Parisien]

Stainless?

See Sprog on this thread....pm him

Thanks for the links, now those look nice, as long as tensile strength is compatable could be just the job.
