Dont agree there matey. I put on my cup-packed alloys yesterday. These will be on till around april. I find the rear turinis etc take a battering from the roadsalt, and fill up betwen the spokes with general crap!. They become chipped, a bit like the lower half of the 1/4 panel. My turinis are...
Christ best thing i ever did!!!!
Some pics
Quick wash down of the door before i started (to the bump strip). The right side of the door (full of swirls lol) was how the car looked clean, with many coats of super resin polish. A 10 min play with the pc on the left side is obvious...
I stronly suggest you listen to one. The sound clip in the thread is of a MK1 stealth, which sound nice, but were poorly built. The MK2 stealth fits supurb (best i've come across for fitment on a 172) but sound w**k!!! Very very raspy, sounded like a wet fart. Mine lasted a week. Was too...

Nice. Dont see the fuss with xenons imo. Way overrated, i actually prefered my cup with uprated osram bulbs. The one thing the 197 must have is the black surrounds on the headlights. Looks mint this one :)
