I've heard on the grapevine that Prince Charles is going to offer such a service at Highgrove. He'll do it while you wait and Camilla will provide a cuppa.
You could on the other hand try the factory or VSM at Colwall...near the factory.

For those of us now suffering from "louvre envy", how practical would it be to have the "missing" louvres inserted, and who would offer this service (and the necessary repaint)? MMC will do it and give you a quote. PM sent to you Bud __________ 2003 - 4/4

Budster,
During the recent (third and last) restoration of this car, we actually had quite a discussion on whether to replace the wheels with stainless, chrome or the original silver painted wheels. We (wife, friends and I) finally decided on a new set of the painted ones--we thought the bright ones would be just too much bling and detract from the other chrome bits and the contrasting black wings. I think we made the right decision.
Allen '69 4/4 Allen I agree with you. I think that painted wires on a 4/4 look right. However on the +4s and Roadsters, I would go for stainless Bud __________ 2003 - 4/4

I do have a spare set of bonnet halves left over from my "supersport" makeover earlier this year, 29 top and 8 inward side louvres. If anyone is interested I might be persuaded to sell them!
