| ......has taken a fair while to gather some pics to advertise for mine and my mates small buissness we are starting. nothing overly fancy yet but we have got a few bits to show off of what can be done. stuff that can be done is: pinstriping signwriting small details polishing wheel lips split rim dishes fully polished wheels sandblasting painting powder coating anodizing machineing, custom bits (pretty much anything can be done) centre caps are the most popular so far bolt extracting manifolds, carbs etc We are going to offer a full split rim wheel refurb too, can be dropped off in one piece with or without tyres then collected with everything minty fresh once again with or without tyres. pics of bits and bobs so far, also waiting on more machine custom work so will add those once i recieve them. before after steph had her powdercoating done so we cant take credit for that, centre caps are custom made and also act as a spigot ring, and are made from air craft grade ali and then polished. my wheels with custom "no bolt" caps with vw logo painted on other "details", pinstriping and signwriting also some of dans handy work on the cnc machines, if you look close you can even see he engarved them "vw" ask away with any questions, all quotes will be done via pm's also. cheers for looking peeps | |

No mate but I can get it done at work, what you need doing? Drop me a text if that's easier Basically the throttle body mount on a 16v inlet cutting off and remounting on the other side so affectively it will look like the rare rocco 16v inlet. That way, if i decide to valver my golf, i can keep the metering head where it is and it'll look factory | |
