Project STump, not just alloy wheel repair Newcastle

Not just alloy wheel repair and refurbishment..

We Fix Alloys don’t just do alloy wheel repair…

We’ve been asked to do many alloy wheels in many colours …

and we like nothing more than being given a challenge so we were more than happy to help when one of our customers asked us to customise their mobility scooter – at their request we began Project STump

First job was to remove the tubs from the frame which our customer Ste was in charge of

Once we got them we could begin the preparation  – as you can see from this there was some pretty significant damage in places

Once all the scratches and gouges have been filled its time to cover the parts in primer so they have a smooth finish ready for the final coat of custom colour

Finally the parts are all ready for the custom colour to go on – this time it’s a bright orange with a high silver fleck which was spotted on our Celica GT4 at Mini Mania 2012

Here are parts in close up – some with just the first coat and some with the final version

Coming back together nicely…

We added a bit of carbon fibre to the instrument panel and then handed all the parts back to Ste to put back together (carefully!). Within hours he was posting on Facebook pictures of the finished scooter all back together – he was happy, we were happy – another job gone to plan at We Fix Alloys
