Before, during and after.....

[Darren S]

Got the alloys painted - finally! I've wanted them done for ages (by that - years) and I have to say that I'm really chuffed with them. :approve:

Not unique by any stretch of the imagination as its been done before by a few people on here. But here's the pics of how the 182 has changed it's looks in the last few days....




Before (old pic from when I last PC'd it a few months back)

As of last Wednesday - rollin' on drhowser's loaned Speedlines

...and finally back on with the blacked-up OEM wheels as of yesterday....

high Gloss black wheel's is the way forward for BG cars.

 

[jdh91]

[Magic Johnson]

Looks great on all 3! Prefer the black OEMs the most.

Nope - been sat on the attic shelf for years now! I prefer the look without them, tbh.

I'd put the white 2118's back on mate.

I would if they were mine! They made the car feel a lot more go-kart'ish. Strangely, the people at work who I thought would hate them actually quite liked the look. The chavs generally hated them though. A bit confused on that one, myself. :S

Lol! Nice one!

Thanks for the comments guys! I really just wish I'd had them done sooner now.

Looks mint, gloss black?

Yes m8. I did think matt black at first, but then I just thought they would dirty from a distance all the time. They do look good against a bit of tyre shine too.

If the car was clean the black wheels would look spot on
