    Durability of powder-coated steels

    Currently I have 20" alloys on the van, but sorely tempted to put it back on 17s. Current plan is to look for a set of Devonports. However I like the look of the GP steels and I think they could really suit my van. I've never had steels on a car before though. If they're properly powder coated...

    Hi all, I recently purchased some lovely 17” Black Aracaju alloys that have been re powder coated. I didnt think anything of it when I was looking at the wheels but I have been looking at getting them fitted and it seems that the mating surfaces being powder coated is an issue. The company that...

    OEM Tailgate Bike-Rack - available in black

    I couldn’t find another post on this yet. I’ve seen a few T6s recently with the version 2 of the bike rack but in black. They look rad and would go nicely camo with my black T6. AFAIK, V2 is the one with the wider frame. Here it is in silver...

    Black bike rack

    Bored during lockdown? Bike parks closed? Why not take your old rear bike rack apart and have it powder coated? I did mine, took the painters 4 days to turn round and cost me £65. A weekend either side for disassembly and assembly, nice upgrade.

    Changing sidebars to black?

    Just wondered, if I go for black side bars - are they powder coated and therefore fairly easy to scratch the paint off ? Does anybody know / experienced ? Thank you.

    So I got a set of 5 steelies with the van to use for winter, any recommendations on what to do regarding refurbing them?? What sort of price would I expect for powder coating them black?? Or is just painting them an easier option? Thanks :thumbsup:

    Hello, I am waiting delivery of my t6, t32 highline in imodium grey. It will come with silver davenport as standard. I like the look of the van and shape of the wheels but don't like the light silver of the wheels. Has anyone powder coated theirs? Mat or satin black I was thinking......

    Side Bars What's the Point ?

    Are sidebars supposed to be for protection or are they cosmetic? cheers

    Bike Rack - black colour-change

    Hey all, not sure if anyone else has considered this but basically I think the new rack looks a bit cheap and dodgy, however if powder coated it could be improved? Any ideas on the cost of powder coating plus recommended places? Also i'd like a spoiler and would not mind having the rack on...
