Too long mate, always a pleasure seeing you. Pop along to a North Weald meet sometime, it doesn't matter what you're in its the catching up with friends.

Feel a bit more human today after a marathon 13 hours sleep. A massive thank to you to all CS admin who made this event happen. From start to end you all worked tirelessly to give us something to remember for a long time ahead. A big round of applause to you all. Just to echo what the others...

Aaaah it's really good to see my LY 200 EDC has made it on here, thank you :blush:

Just booked the PM slot in the EDC, cannot wait to see old faces and new people on here

Agreed on the sprint spoiler, add nice lines to the back like a cup spoiler does on the Mk2s

Will definitely be there tomorrow morning with daughter in tow, she loves the aeroplanes... And a full English breakfast, takes after me 🙈

Would love a cup racer spoiler, amongst other things I'd like to add to the Clio! Indeed it's a massive amount of money for what it is.

Prepped and gave the other 3 wheels a go over in primer this evening. I'm hoping to have them finished by the end of the weekend. I think I'll sell the Team Dynamics wheels to help pay for the tyres.

Exactly, everything is staying as is

In primer still, I defy anyone NOT to like it....

It must be nice to have pretty much everything at your disposal, I'm jealous in a nice way. It's a breath of fresh air to read a project thread that's to the point, detailed with some humour thrown in at points along the way. Looking forward to more updates :blush:

Awesome updates, the kind of build qualities I imagine a lot of people have in their minds they'd like to do but don't have the facilities etc to carry out.

Halfords it is! Thanks for the heads up, I assumed it was just the stuff on the shelves. Which surprised me the other day, they're still selling the same paint colours for Rover Leyland cars after all this time.

I've not had them done yet, I'll look into having LY mixed up into an aerosol can. I think there's a company local to me that supply bodywork shops their paint that can do it

As I have 2 wheels spare I might give something different like that a go once the other 4 are done.

Now that IS brave! It would need to be specially made and would cost a fortune I imagine. I've been quoted £220 for a 4 wheel refurb, I imagine pre mixed LY would be around £15-20 each. Let's roll with the white for now 🙈

A dusting of white primer this evening, hopefully if I have time I'll trial fit on the Clio this Sunday to get an idea of how it looks

Oh well, here goes 🙈

I'm soo busy but absolutely itching to spray a wheel now just to get an idea!

Why are you lot doing this to me lol! Actually not a bad idea.

I've seen the stickers on E Bay, again colour choice is key. Worried something like yellow would look a bit like colour marking the tyre make name in white. They do the OE Speedline blue, black, grey which could be a choice

I'm gonna try white first, it's the colour of choice I wanted to go with based on the above cup racer photo and the white cup race car on white Turinis. 99% in my mind it works the other 1% says a clash with the blade and side trims.... We'll see, half the fun should be in the working out.

Like I said earlier I must be missing something or getting older as EVERYONE is saying stay GOLD. It's like I'm the only one not seeing the biggest trend out at the moment. I still say white but knows what will happen. I'll paint one, put a tyre on and fit them... And hate it, there's nothing...

Everyone's raving about them looking good in gold with the LY.... I just don't get it, well I don't see it, maybe I'm missing something. I was all set to go white with them but now tempted to put a tyre on the wheel then fit back on again to see what's its like. As for tyres I might go with a...

Lol I did wonder, at least the tyres will be cheaper.

Excuse my French, but f**k me they're close!! But work! So there's a 45mm gap between the rear strut and the inner part of the wheel. Up front there's a 13mm gap between the strut and the wheel, the 8J brings the rim closer to the strut so there's absolutely no tolerance for them to go in any...

As they came on 17s std and I'm lowered on Cooksports I think I could get away with it... But yeah I am tempted to go 18s
