Gave it a good going over today, wheels off, arches a quick scrub, EGP'd the wheels etc.

Also got out the results of a hit and run in my works carpark yesterday, gutted when someone asked me if I'd crashed my car, ran outside and it was there with no-one to be seen, no note, nothing reported to security etc :(

Anyways, a few pics:

So now needs front end respray, rear bumper, 1 bump strip, 1 door handle, bullets, and a good PC for the rest of it. Wheel refurb in a nice colour, new rear discs and pads next week.
 
Some people are so f**king inconsiderate.

Glad most of its come out though mate, cars looking clean.
 
Thanks for the comments.

Wheels are a dodgy shade of silver/white because my powdercoaters fucked up (long story!) not sure whether to go anthracite or high power silver, but no money at the minute so will have to stay as they are for now.

If I find out who has caused the bump then I will kill them, so pissed off about it. Got some stress marks on it too which can't be seen in the pics, so I reckon it might even need a new bumper :(
 
Repeat after me,

I will NOT take my wheels back there to get them refurbished again. We know the colour is bad, but the finish looks very orange peely (sp) too!! Bad times :(

Still, car looks mint other than the rims :)

Won't be going back to them lol!
Will get them done pro instead of a backstreet place, get what you pay for and all that...!

It is a really bad finish, had to accept them though as I had sold my other wheels, bad times.

At least they are clean though ;)
 
the wheels look like a matt grey..tbh it looks quite nice! daft t***s...hope they did more damage to their car!
 
Suprisingly enough, it pulls the white (or white looking) Turini's off really well. Gutting about the bump...luckily most it it came out. Lovely other than that though!
 
...actually, looking at it closer, it looks like a bike wheel left that mark..was it a rubber residue? or was it paint?
 
99% it wasn't a bike, as this is a seerate off site carpark, bikes part on site.

Was something blue as there were blue marks on the bumper.

Re re wheels, might look better if they were a proper colour then it might be better.
 
Looking good! I had virtually the same damage on my 182 when someone hit it and drove off :(
 
Nice car, love pic 12 for some reason I cant put my finger on lol

What did you use to clean the wheels up with? They came up good on the inside

Yeah i like that one too :)

Just same shampoo and an old washmitt, they were powdercoated only a few weeks ago so was nothing too major, just rubbed straight off!
 
Looking good dude!

Gutted about the wheels... As mine came out absolutely spot on?!!?

It shall be looking mint again though. :D
 
hp silver wheels sound good 2me. My gf's car has been damaged both sides this week one looks like melicious foot print on os rear arch and other is ns rear corner parking scuff/dent argh fs.
 
Looks good mate but white doesn't suit silver imo of course.
You could make a good job with rattle cans short term

I think you've done a good job on the bumper, thankfully silver is reasonably forgiving unlike Black Gold. I think everyone will agree with your comment re. other peoples lack of care for your car.
 
Looks awesome mate, pitty about the damage. There really are some c***s out there!
