I know this will look like several other cars, but after running 182 wheels and then getting a good deal on some cheap Turini's I managed to get them fitted yesterday after a refurb in grey. So I gave the car a good clean and decided to spray my bullets to match.
Here are the results:

Do you even get out on the road. You have a 40k + post count FFS!
The whole point is to be seen on track, its like painting wing mirrors too. Easy to take off or put back to normal.
they have stuck down OK, some have lifted and on the curved sections they are creased. However they are only for track days or shows etc so i'm not too fussed. Plus the lacquer has helped to keep it all together.
My body shop guy advised applying them wet with washing up liquid, when they dry...
Yes, service (as in time can be a bit crap) but for £20 a corner, the product they offer is great. Had my williams wheels powdercoated. Few bits in the paint, but its the PC process i guess. a little price to pay for tough paint.
They were all red until i put the front mount IC on and couldn't get the hoses you see in blue, in red! It wont matter later this year anyway, its getting a new lump and its not a C1J :)
After posting a few rubbish quality photo's yesterday, I went out the front today to take some better ones. This ended up in a little afternoon of swapping rim's. Hope you like :approve:
Search Stickerbomb on ebay or a shopping website. There are 2 books by Studio Rarekwai, a book contains about 200 stickers. Would say i used about 30 to do my laptop so plenty in one book.

Just after some opinions please..........
I've bought a spare set of wing mirror covers for my 172. I'd like to do a few track days and maybe shows in the car this year. If i go on track ill be running on the blue williams wheels. My question is this..............
Do i paint the mirrors the...
Hi,
Apart from me looking at photos and thinking they are very close. Can anyone actually tell me how close Renault RB and the blue used on the wheels and stickers on the white 996 GT3 RS actually is?
Or can anyone point me to a web site where i can find out?
Trying to match the Porsche...
Mate, Main thing is your OK and i'm guessing your going to learn from this experience. Looks like the damage is minimal and can be fixed by yourself.
Just to clarify for the kickers, Drobbly bought the wheels and tyres from me last weekend, they were on my 172 when I bought it, 2 budget...
Glad your happy with them buddy, they look much better than the steels!
If your going to refurb them, the ones i did are on my profile on the 5. Materials cost about £50 to £60, but if you have been quoted £100 all in that's good. Do they do the inside for that price?
