Yeah mate. Had mine repaired. MIne wasnt one of the worst Id seen though. had a slight crease on drivers side and slightly bigger on passenger. I got it pushed out and filled. its been like that for months now and never cracked. I can tell its been filled though as its not perfect, but it looks...
Hehe. I think yours would be easy mate. These rims were a fair old mess. 2 of em were worse than your worse one id say.
Was gonna wait and we could do both sets together. But I got a bit carried away last night. Im far from finished yet though. Only done 1 partially at the min.
Ill do yours...
well that pic is one before any lacquer was put on. They looked quite bright but the lacquer dulls it a bit.
that wheel was in a right mess, did the worse first. its not an easy job, takes f**kin ages.
I know the tyres gold lol. thought it looked nice hehe. Na its f**ked, will be taken off the rim tomorrow. Think I can get the polished rim affect by using a tool to take the paint off the rim and then lacquering over the bare metal.
This was one of the worse wheels id say too. the wheel was ok but there was quite a bit of oxidation. I have taken my time and got every bit off so it wont come through again. Got a throbbin headache too now :(
Started this earlier, gettin the tyres taken of tomorrow so i can do it better,
The wheels were pretty corroded, where i took of the paint they were peeling.

why u using a spring compressor? whn ever ive done it before I just got a mate to undo the nut as I push down hehe. Only pussies use spring compressors lol.
Ive noticed an annoying creaking rattling noise from my drivers door. Is there anything that works loose inside? So I know what to look for when i rip the door panel off?
YOu may all have seen my screen and dvd install.
I get a bit of interference when u rev the car, seen this before with amps etc. kind of a whistle. Think it affects the picture slightly too though.
Think it could be cos its plugged into the fag lighter? Where should i run a live from in a...
does a willy rev lower in 5th? I find valvers rev a bit high myself. Would rather have the willy engine and box I think. If its stronger too thats a bonus hehe
f**k thats bad mate.
If u find a decent painter let me know. I want some doing too so we can go halfs on paint hehe. Well u were moaning about that panel lookin a bit dull so least itll be nice and shiny when its done.
Its like the williams and 16vs really I guess. So many 16vs in blue. But its the best colour by far!!! hehe
cup blue is gorgeous but i Think if they did a 172 in the cup colour id go for that myself as the seats are a lot nicer etc.
someones probably tried to repair it. Its not like a major damage though I wouldnt have though. YOu could get it repaired cheap. Would some of that liquid metal not repair that?
