Right well, wheels arrived yesterday, got them fitted straight away. Got some pics today, so here they are.
and one for the crack
The tyres on them are mint, the front's are pretty much new. Plan is to refurb in graphite grey with some custom gel domed badges.

Replacement badges, i can't think of any examples but i'm sure you get the idea of what they are from that . Gonna lower it a bit more first and see how it looks tucked, may space them out a bit for a bit more stance, we'll see.

Definately wanting to go lower, planning to get some coilies but we'll see how that works out. Yeah, should be good for tomorrow if all goes to plan dude, you gonna be there?
Got a few other little plans soon hopefully just to tidy it up a bit more but it's all slowly coming together nicely

Thanks very much shaun , i'm really pleased with how they've come out, especially considering they were done with rattle cans. Love the colour too, the yellow/gold tint goes really well with the rio verde when the light hits it. Been following your thread, coming along very nicely, proper good stuff .
Cheers gav well happy with them
Thanks dan got them for £215 with pretty much brand new toyo proxes and excellent eagle F1's on. Quite a deal i think.
Yes dan! repping the more doors, definately need a decent photoshoot.
