Good work, so what have you decided on colour wise?
-
Gold, you know it makes sense! :cool:
-
oh yes gold it is. gold with a silver lip.
have decided to do the full centre gold instead of that pointy design i did.
then going to fit 45 profile tyres so my golf will be going down abit more
also just scored a right result for the car a min ago. but will do a diferant thread about that as want peoples views on it as its abit of a marmite love it or hate it thing :grin:
-
Nice. Are they 15s or 16s? :cool:
-
They are 15's mate.
What do you guys recon? With or without centre caps?
-
With centre caps, without just looks like your missing the centre caps.... :grin:
-
done the best i could on ps to get them the right size but im planning on using lower profile tyres than in the pics.
this is now the plan for them. colour may be slitely diferant gold and maybe abit more chromey and shiney but you get the idea.
dont ask about the rear wheel :grin: i give on trying to get it right. :grin:
was looking at diferant colour fly eye aswell ()fly eye not fitted when this pic was taken)) to see if they did gold :laugh: dont think they do tho :cry:

Came from a Seat Toledo?
-
Looking good mate - will like to see these when they are all done :)
-
I'm using 80 grit to sand them all back by hand to get all the corrosion off. Then will use high build primer and sand that back to a 2000 grit then the colour wich I havnt decided wich gold to use yet then a stupid amount of coats of clear to give it a really deep shine.
And yes th ate from a seat taledo. Wheels cost me £25.
Not sure if I will need spacers on the front yet for caliper clearance but will deal with that once icmv finnished them.

Sweet cheers bud, I think I'm going to use that Montana gold spray. Few people seem to use it so i thought I'll try it. :smiley:
