[B5 BDJ]

[AlexS]

Nice, although im not sure on the centre cap.

thats what i thought - then thought it breaks it up a bit - but they are going to be sparayed a better silver!

I've got a set of these in 16" if anyone wants some?! In need of a refurb. Pm me.

Very good DIY effort though fella

 

[leighk18]

look very nice fell gd to be diffrent

 

[ClioRT88]

Looks good, how did you cut back the rim? Just sand it down?

Also, what black did you use as its not too dark if you get me, suits it really well.

Theres a guy on clio16valver with similar wheels but black centres too, should try get the centres to match the polished rim, are they metal centres?

Nice work fella!

 

[Phoenix]

nice work....did a refurb on a set of these a while ago in gloss black with a red lip. and no center caps...looked awesome

impossible, they were only ever made in 15's

[Hazza]

How do u do the polish lip?

 

[Reyes]

I was thinking the same

 

[Nafoff]

as far as i know, you keep sanding back the metal, getting through finer and finer grades of paper, then you autosol (or the like) it up to this finish

 

[PS autoshine]

good job,more satisfying than buyin the latest rims i bet.

Megane Coupe 16v

 

[Nafoff]

sure it wouldn't be these wheels, they were 15's to i'm sure

 

[xcore]

hmmm going to repaint my new alloys when i get them!

 

[cat171]

I quite like the refurb, but i'd sort the centre cap out, I don't tihnk it looks right..

sure it wouldn't be these wheels, they were 15's to i'm sure

Some mk1 meganes ran ph2 valver alloys (speedline vega's, 15inch) Some ran 16's - the centre caps have a recessed circle on them, i'm not sure if they are vegas though.

Like this They do look alike apart from the centre caps.

 

[AlexS]

I would be tempted to forget about the centre caps all together and just getsomething engineered to cover the wheel bolts etc perhaps similar to that used on the 172ff or dynamique wheels and have that matt black aswell.

 

[JAMESSRICH]

i thought u would chuck in your 2pence worth

they are getting done

debating whether to lacquer as i want to keep edge shinny but can be arse auto-solving all the time! i auto-soled today and it comes out really well!

 

[JAMESSRICH]

progress update - as the one shown was the first (prototype)

well now the job has been passed on to my sprogs at work to prep etc lol

had to take pics from outside as i was busy chatting!
