Things just got a bit brighter.

[Jonff]

As in the wheels. Always fancied using a loud colour on the wheels and with the decent weather of late and being off Thursday/Friday I decided to crack on with it.

Did the 1st wheel and was pretty happy with the result so I did the other 3.

I know it won't be to everyone's tastes but I'm happy with it, p.s apologies to Gray for stealing his idea


Also gave the inlets a lick of paint

 

[Sanders]

Lol. I was trying to get the whole car in shot but couldn't cos of where I was parked and the fiesta that was in the way, I'll get some better photos when the car isn't parked so awkwardly for photos

Yeahh I've lacquered the wheels.

 

[tommys]

Nice one. I done mine last week too, how many layers u use?

 

[Jonff]

Quite alot lol. About 4 layers of primer, used a full 300ml can of paint on each wheel and about 5 layers of lacquer.

I got some more F1s coming next week with the plans of refurbing them silver. Now I'm tempted by a bright colour.

 

[Jonff]

Advise would be to do just one then fit it to the car and see how it looks, at least then if it doesn't look very good you're not having to re-do all 4.

Mine are abit rough on the insides of the spokes but that's because I didn't sand them down after priming them.
