Default Carbon Dipping in South Wales???

I've just treated myself to a new set of gauges and failing to get hold of a nice triple dash pod for a V3 I've had no other option than to have a pillar pod which I want to get carbon dipped, is there anyone who does this local to the Newport/Cwmbran area??

Not more tasty bits for that hatch, not sure how much more I can take???

Thanks for passing their number on, as soon as the pod arrives I'll give them a bell. The other problem now is what colour to have it done

I want some A pillar trims and a dash centre pod dipped as well, I've seen some of their work before on Lommy's green Focus RS and it looks very good, I've no doubt if it was crap that Lommy wouldn't have it on his car.

Thanks Ian but the gauges are 52mm otherwise I would have snapped it up, I knew that a member called scoobytaff I think?? Has one for sale and looked very nice but again for 60mm gauges I guess gauges in a pillar pod are better than no gauges at all.

Hopefully I'll be dropping over my pod and trims next week, it's not too far from where I work so I'll have a chat about some form of club discount if there are enough interested.

Not to sure on the dipping process, think it looks good on some things but can also look tacky

No problem, I'll see what I can do.

I know what you mean Lee, but it's more dependent on the quality of the company carrying it out. I'm looking to go for a high gloss finish.

I'm doing it as the drivers side A pillar trim is having twin gauge pods moulded onto it so I want it all matching.

You won't go wrong with Auqagraphix Ty, they are really good!!! Dave did a load of bits on my 350z, have a quick look at the interior pictures on my website (its in the sold section) and you'll see what great work he does
The finish is superb and best of all you'll know it'll fit

Sorry jay I've not seen the thread, glad someone popped the number up for you

Seen plenty of bits on the interior and under bonnet they have done and tbf it's pretty bang on, But I have seen a few sets of wheels, 3 to be precise that had a few misalignments and chipped rather easy so maybe not the best option for wheels, but that's just my view on it I've seen others who have been very happy with them, and have seen plenty of others done but can't say I stood there staring at their wheels looking for issues
