Yeah I've heard of them, just wondered if that made them desirable second hand.

Re it being dodge - it was the same place again, think it they were going to pass it they would have done it first time around. Not sure, I'll know when I've been under it and also swung off the wheels.

I know, but it's only the cosmetic stuff that worries me as it would need to be finished and look good, whereas underneath that isn't so critical.

I know it's probably a complete rot box but I also don't want to see another one broken.

I've had toplines on a car before. The face of the wheel looks the same but they wernt split rims. Not sure which these ones are.

Car looks a bit crappy in the pics but im sure you will know whether it is good enough to save or not
