Ooooh that could be made decent again! Is there a way to find out what it was written off as?
*not read the description so don't know if it was written off, just going from the comments here
I bought my Costco one because the halfords one is tiresome to use and scary as f**k when it starts making noises.
The Costco one (or any substantial one) looks and feels solid as f**k. And is effortless to use.
Hahaha
That was pretty amusing.
I did tell everyone on the forum and before we went though :o
I think I'll give them a ring close to the time and see if they'll deliver if there's enough interest
For track and budget, 15"s all day long
There's a guy with 18"s on a 197 who frequently does oulton. Here's me thinking 17" tyres were expensive enough lol
The smooth jazz grated on me after a minute or so but I liked the rest of it.
You spoke like you knew what you were talking about, no long awkward pauses or rambling etc but the best bit was you come across like you're interested in what you're talking about but you're not being forcefully...
From what I gather they're fine on the online side of things. Their products do come with ktax added but they seem to be a decent sized company so they need to make their cut on things I suppose.
You'll have to do a search for why people dislike them though so this doesn't turn into another...

I'll be redoing mine in the next couple of weeks but I'll be lacquering them.
They'll be going bmw space grey as soon as I'm happy with how I spray it lol
Today's test piece with horribly wrong gun settings
I had similar results using metal filler

It doesn't even take long, I think I spent a few hours in total on all of them
Giving up on posting the befores and durings
I'm not saying boiling water won't work, I'm saying such a large sudden change in temperature could've fucked up the paint.
It's the same reason you don't pour boiling water on a frozen windscreen.
Thermal shock and stuff innit
I'll try and make this. I've not been out in too long

I've just edited the title and poll. I should've changed it to an event but I'm tired so a poll will do
From what I've seen, 197 bumpers don't look too out of place on the standard cars.
I can't remember whether the one I saw was modified slightly or just fitted and bolted up but they can be fitted.
