Can this be down at home?

Basically just wanting to have black alloys but until then would like my existing ones black.

PS it's all old pic

...wouldnt bother, it sould cost you money that you could spend buying a set of alloys, i bought a white set of alloys for my micra for 77 quid on ebay, without tyres..
it would cos you about 77 quid if not more to get them coloured properly...

no it wouldnt at all.
u could spray them all etc for around £30 max
u just have to have the equipment and know how.

but as he said i would bother too much. but its your decision u wanna test u go for it
means taking them off for a few days.

Im interested in doing that aswell.

could any one tell me the technique on doing it.

you need to polish the wheels with a polishing tools to emove all the laquer that is on them. thoroughly.
then once thats done it is th same as spraing ne thig. prime and spray then laquer on top.

I thought this might be possible!
And seeing as it's you Quickdraw it's something to consider now!
I'm not too worried about ruining the wheels as am looking into getting some new ones in the future

yes it is possible. my mate had hers sprayed a bronzy colour, originally silver. takes abit of time and work, but was good to learn how to do it.
