Default Anybody Handy with a spray can???

I am getting my wheels refurbed and the centre caps are plastic so cannot be done at the same time as they will melt

So I either need to spray them myself (which I will give a go) or get them done.

So are any of the ESC capable of that or know anyone that could do it

Should be pretty easy job yourself dave, just give them a rub down first, and apply a light coat of acid etched primer first then a few light coats and it should all come out fine. Even put them in a oven at a very low temperature for a whille to help the paint go off

No regrets from me though, loving the Focus.

Apparently my old car might have gearbox problems

Beesti mentioned it to me, but didn't have any issues when I still had it.

I think the only Scoob that I would buy next would be if FatmanScooby ever sold his
