;) They will be going on this beast:

I dont know any cheap sandblasters in north london! :( Yes i am starting a primer sray tomorow so will keep updated!

I had a look at the 3rd 1 and this is also polished! I reckon i have 3 polished and 1 normal. It takes soooo much work to get just 1 wheel to that level of finish! Im dreading the next 3 lol

FAIL! :rasp:

I was hoping to put a new battery in and drive it home :(

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/760271.htm Is it just me that fails to spot a single piece of the car that is salvagable?!

Im guessing you didnt get the joke....

Next step: Primer it and then paint it "amphasite" with a polished rim! :cool:

Ill let the pics do the talking: And this is the first wheel ready for primer :)

Next i carried on with the first wheel:

No whilst i was finishing this wheel off i decided to cover the next 1 in stripper to get it going and to my surprise it turned out that the whole face of the next alloy had been mirror finished beneath the paint :S. Anyone seen this before? It looks like its been machined as you can see...

My DIY Williams alloy refurb Picked up a set of williams alloys the other night in bad need of a good refurb! Here is 1 of the wheels, this is probs 1 of the best! I decided i was goign to take all the wheels right down to the metal so i started by paint stripping the surface: Then...

whats that about?

(sorry for posting this twice but i wasnt sure which forum to put it in! :S) I need to go to halfords and pick some up, but i dont have a clue about paints etc and was wondering if there is different types? I want to do 2 or 3 layers of primer before I apply paint if that makes a difference...

I need to go to halfords and pick some up, but i dont have a clue about paints etc and was wondering if there is different types? I want to do 2 or 3 layers of primer before I apply paint if that makes a difference? Or perhaps you could advise me further? :cool:

Need 4 willy wheels blasted down to bare metal as cheap as possible! Thanks

Panasonic do some really good house phones, iv had 2 sets now and only replaced the old 1's after many years! Iv got a set now, very easy to use, loud, awesome battery life aswell!

Iv just picked up a set of willimas wheels in desperate need of a refurb and fancy having a go myself and if i fail ill just pay someone to do them properly! So has anyone done a guide before or similar? thanks

My pants = Jizz in them

who sold you the duff box? and who sold you a 182 box as a 172 box?

i think we are pretty certain it stays the same? lol

yeh could well be a popped a circlip which is an easy fix!

Iv heard of ppl declaring engine changes and only having to pay tax on the old engine!

Sorry im confused! The shakers?

I have just jacked my car up and checked for any play in the wheel by grabbing it at 12 and 6 and rocking it, very little play which i think is the bearing as it does it at 9 and 3 aswell, but am i checking it right?

Yes mate, there is some play in the column but no more then there was for the last few months! Im pretty sure its not this! How do i go about checking the ball joint?

I noticed today that when I was dirving and went over a speed bump or was turning that there was a small clunk noise, so i pulled over and wiggled the wheel from left to right and there was a series of small clunks! Any ideas what this could be? Patrick

as above!

put a clutch cable on, the AA have put on a temporary 1 but i need to fit the genuine renault 1. I think the temp 1 isnt opening the clutch fully.

anyone?
