quit with the big man act on the forum and being my best mate on msn, you dont have to ask my opinion on EVERYTHING you do to your car you know.
next time you want advive and HPis on the cheap find some other monkey to help

wow.. :eek: take a joke!!
damm woman. time of the month??
sorry:eek:

lmao!

fair play for having a go yourself! you've made a cracking go at it too

it's just the stitching that lets it down imo
 
having seen all the work that's gone into this first hand it's FAR from the easiest thing in the world to do. Looks great for a first attempt and the stitching you wont be able to see when the wheel is attached to the car.

it already is out of view, its where it is usually, also didnt want it on the back and you would be able to feel it all the time

Nice work. It's good to see a bit of DIY in here now and again. A trimmer would have charged many £££'s. Think I'll have a go at my melted ph2 wheel :)

theres a reason i wouldnt try anything like this ..... the evidence is at the start of the thread.

nothing like a bit of over reaction just because everyone doesnt bow down and worship the taylor.

Did you strip the black stuff off first or just cover over it?

fully striped it down

I really like the stiching...it gives the wheel a certain quaintness :approve:

well i like to think so lol

I'm not sure about the stitching, from the pics its looks to be a bit wonky and not straight but fair play for effort.

(I thought very hard about my reply, I hope it pleases you taylor ;))

Nice one on trying! I wouldn't even attempt it. Better than anything I could come up with but it still looks wrong imo!

Good effort but it looks very DIY. If your going to do something do it properly an all that, even if you do have to pay for it.....
