Talking of which, does anybody know a decent wheel refurber who will split and do them properly? My BBS's need doing.

Yeah, in Otford there is very good bloke who does them for the Ferrari/Bentley local dealers... only issue is that he charges about £70 per rim!

Let me know if you want his info...

Just a word of warning about split rims being refurbed. Most companies these days will insist you strip and rebuild them now. This is because a company is currently going through a court battle over a guy's split rim failing after being refurbed, and the bigger refurb companies got lawyers to look into it. It's likely to be determined the refurb company were at fault as they were unable to rebuild them to manufacturers specs (because manufacturers won't tell you torque settings), so this is why most companies have changed their policy.

On a lighter note, they look sweet as f**k. Bright pink centres I reckon.

when i refurb them i will split them and rebuild them myself! will prob refurb them myself, they are simple to do... know a fair few people who have split and rebuilt their own wheels and its simple enough :) im thinking bright yellow or liquid yellow centres... there is a diamond polishing place near me that will do the rims for 10 quid each...

jon labtab are supposed to be pretty good at refurbing...

I have the same JDM obsession with my Impreza.

Only 3 parts i have added are not JDM, one being the K-sport brakes, one being the APR rear diffuser and finally the Hyperflow FMIC and TMOC.

JDM obsession is an expensive disease! lol.

I am saving to finish off my Cusco handling setup at the mo!

Then it will be some Tomei goodness for the engine! :D
