Your going to get lots of problems driving around with primer showing, it will soak up moisture and give you problems with paint finish.
  Looks cool like that, but wayne has a point, leave it like that and get it lacquered!  :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

:cool:

Awesome project, come quite a way, amazing skills. R32 blue please.  :drool: Or porcelain blue.

One thing, I'm thinking of getting Borbet A's, if I got good condition 7.5"s would you be interested in swapping a couple?

lol, it does attract attention, too much tbh and i dont think its the right attention! although it is nice to see the faces on some people and some of things people say and the change in expression when they know its really about :D

cheers bud ;) yeah cant wait for the deep blue pearl and my crazy wheel refurb :laugh:

thanks, but no thanks. i love the 9's all round. looking at spacing out the fronts a little and the rears a little more. good luck with the hunt, there is people out there trying to swap i reckon, just post up in all the vdub forums your on.

I would swap the fronts for 7.5s and tuck them nicely and leave a touch of poke on te rear. Too much tyre stickin out looks gay!

My 2p

they need more poke! they have 0.0 degree of camber and are tucked as it is! i have rolled out the arches though....

im getting the camber readjusted soon, so will have more tuck. They spacing anyway, as they are very very close to the brakes!

the 7.5's wouldnt look right imo.
