What do you guys/gals think:question: can be seen in the flesh at the forthcoming Arbroath run :D
I've also copied Euan and painted the calipers gold......looks good IMO :p:D:approve:

mm never have been a fan of those wheels but in black they look very nice indeed :) its hard to see the calipers although i think thats due to the shade, who done the wheels for you?

Good god man:eek: you don't think I left them on do you:p Can't leave these on with the missus driving it most of the time:blackeye:;)
I'll try and find out the name of the company that did them as I got them done through a contact at my work. They made an @rse of them the first time so they did them again for me and its like they have been done by a different company altogether:D Soooooooooooper job 2nd time around :p:D:approve:

Well they are only human afterall :clown:

is it me/the camera/the sunlight or has your paint faded, doesn't seem as deep a tone as chilli red should be? Comparing to pictures of mine it looks more like solar red? :I

Is this something ill have to look forward to in years to come of my mini ownership? :disapprove:

Must be the camera/sunlight Sweeney as its OK in the flesh:cool: Does look a bit "orange" in the pictures now that you mention it:I Reds do tend to go a bit pink after a while tho:disapprove: My mundanes wing mirrors are bad for that but a quick rub with t-cut soon brings them back to the right colour:D
