Wheel colour change

Thinking of getting my PFF7's re-painted, maybe anthracite or gunmetal from the existing gold.
Can anyone recommend a re-furbish/re-paint place in the Romford 'ish area?
Must do a proper job ie chemical/shotblast stripping prep. - not just a rub down and spray!

Looking at their website, J P Polishing do the same for £200
What choice of colours do these firms offer?

have seen JP's work as well. My 18's are going there soon and i believe it's £200 now for the 4.

not sure on what colours they do, but know they cant do 2 tone wheels, not that that affects you though. lol

JP prefer to take the wheels rather than leave your car there. so hope you have a spare set if you do go there.

PS. anyone know anybody who has a spare set laying around that would fit a 5 stud astra fitting?? cant leave my car on axle stands as my drive is on a slope! lol
