Done them at home

Waterbased Halfords paints, Sanded them down, cleaned them throughly then a couple of coats of primer, couple of top coat then the same with lacquer. Insides as well so consistent throughout the wheel. No baking as no room in our oven and the mrs would have killed me :lol:

how I love those wheels

good work
any updates?

**Posted:** Wed Jun 01, 2011 10:37 pm

No updates really

I had a brilliant weekend at Howies a couple of weeks back. Spent the weekend machine polishing the car and bringing it up to a better standard.

Still got to refurb the rear wheels and either respray or replace the bonnet and bumper.

Big tease Daz :evil4:

here's one from me, for scale:

Glad you liked it

No new mods for a while, just a quick update of work done over the last year and a half

How my addiction started

Now. Front wheels refurbished, new fogs, splitter, lowered, induction kit, new heater control and other bits I cant remember. I also have a major addiction to Meguiars which I hold several of you here on the forum responsible for :lol:

Still to do. Rear wheel refurbishment, new bonnet and bumper and the dreaded rust to sort on rear arch

Darren, I remember talking to you in July 2010 when we met up after the JAE reps meet for lunch, and looking at your car...I knew then that you would take the car from what it was, and turn it into something pretty special, but I had no idea how far you would go.

I know you will say you still have a long way to go...but you really have transformed the car over the last year or so mate, it's a real credit to you
