hmmmmm never thought of that but now you said it think i remember a long time ago a golf rocking bentley cram rims lol mine aint bentleys ha ha .

the colour would need to tie in with another part of the car to make sense, but a leather retrim is not an option as motor bike is itching for mot.
maybe spray centre facias on dash same as wheels?????

Just finished refurbin my wheels and I know I am blowing my own trumpet but you cannot tell that they have been done by me - fookin perfect, audi colour as well! Got it mixed and much better than Wurth colour! Even better 7 pound a rattle mixed for you! Bloody awsome! White primer all the way.

So idea for the 18s are silver all the way...have the code for anyone that needs silver wheels too
