   Hey, Got my Vtr today.
   £2500
   Mint Condition
   Standard.
   51000 Miles.
   
   Was wondering about spraying the Vtr alloys to black as it is silver saxo with black bumper strips etc so I reckon It would look decent black?
   
   How much is it to get this done professionaly and whats the procedure...do they just spray the alloys or dip them?
   
   Like I say im a newbie.
   Advice would be appreciated.
   Rosco.
