Bit of an update wheels left off a few days ago and just been sent a pic From the Powdertek_NI. Colour I went for from the recommendation from Chris @ Powdertek_NI was Mazda Black, "at 1st I was like Black" but he said its not so he showed me samples and I was like ok lets go with this. Can't wait to get them back and fitted  :cool:

They look really good :cool:. Good recommendation on Mazda Black which doesn’t really look black.

I look forward to seeing them on your car.

I've got to get my adelaides done at some point too. They are shot to hell (and not scuffs!) and of course just before the warranty ran out I did try to get them sorted but you can guess what they said....

I'm definitely not going to keep the diamond cut when i get them done - I do like what you've done here though and can't wait to see them on your car.

They look a good practical colour, plus not too glossy or too matt.

Wheels back on and they look amazing in some lights they look grey and in other lights, black, big thanks to Chris @ Powdertek_NI for his advice again on the colour "Mazda Black". Click on pics to see hi-res versions

They’re great :smiley:. Seeing them on the car pretty much confirms the colour choice is spot-on! Good durability and no worries about white worm corrosion either.

VW - not everyone likes diamond cut alloys! :angry: Why couldn’t there have been a non diamond cut version of Adelaide alloys from the factory?
