My mate works at a skip refurbishing place so I can get them blasted pretty cheap( maybe even for nowt! )
-
Hey folks, dunno if this is the right place to post so mods, feel free to move it! So, I just bought a set of 17" wheels from digitalghost (cheers Carl) which should be here Wednesday. They're going to need a refurb which I'm going to have a bash at myself. It looks like I might have to take them back to the metal so the question is.... What's the best way to do this? Chemical, elbow grease, sandblasting? Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks Iain

It's happened to me a couple of times & never fails to give a warm feeling in the tummy

Japspeed front brace.
Posted brace.jpgyou got it on yet Kenny? You'll notice the difference!!
-
Looks good mate but a resounding YES on the lowering
-
If you use a pointy stick or small screwdriver to take them off, you might damage the paint on the wheels bud. Best to do it from the back with the wheels off. I got a set of decals from mook & painted my centre caps to suit the car, then fitted the decals & lacquered them.
-
Looked at the red but with red logos on the centre caps, I thought it would be too much. Black ones now ordered
Thanks folks -
As per the title folks. My tuner nuts have started to rust & make the car look tatty so am going to change them. My wheels are gloss black with a polished lip & I'd like opinions on what would look best with them. Thanks

Cheers mate

What size is your rear plate bud? I had a look on demonplates & they give you 4 size options for import plates!

Found these Mtec ones on ebay, any good you think? No pic but the description seems right. Standard length + 13mm

BTW how much of a job is it to get the old ones out?

^^^^ Nah mate, 2 10mm spacers. Thanks for that, I'll contact them today
-
Where's the best place to get these? I only need 10 for the front cos I've got 27mm bolt ons on the rear. I've got a set of 10mm spacers I'd like to put on. I've tried freakyparts but Stewart couldn't help
-
^^ that's all you need bud ^^ use one that's a tight fit though
-
I'm watching this with interest mate cos I've got a sheet ready to do mine when I change the smt's. Any pointers would be good!!i received an a4 sheet of transparent red vinyl so I can attempt to finish changing the colour of my speedo display

They're 7mm bud so they'll do the job fine. I got these for mine

Mine went rusty too after about 2 months.
Gonna have to invest in better ones methinks! -
