Wheel refurb with loads of pics, Marmite content ;)

[will.clio!]

Going to let the pictures do the talking. Basically shows my home refurb and the wheels fitted at the end. Wheels are fitted with custom pcd adapters. Fronts are 40mm and rears 20mm.

Future plans will be to finally get an RS grill and have a laguna splitter in the garage, need a new front bumper because mines cracked quite bad. And just recently my ABS light has started to come on after about 15-20mins of driving so gonna check that out. After searches the most popular problems seem to be abs rings and sensors being damaged.

[Owen]

Love it mate

 

[Rob]

I like it, barr the fact you went orange again, bright blue would have been interesting.

Really good work on the spraying though, do you do it by trade?

A question, how much did all the kit cost you?

 

[Mr Pants]

Looks good! Really decent job on the wheels.

Btw where'd you get all the stickers from?

had a little play on photoshop and couldn't decide what colour to do them, eventually went orange again because like how they looked before.

With the spraying i already had an air compressor for air tool anyways and just brought a cheapish gun for 40 quid. My friend martin came over and showed me how to set the gun up properly and had a practice then when i brought these wheels it was the first real chance i've had, at having a go my self. really pleased with how well they've turned out.

All the paint was around 60 quid, primer, etch primer, clear coat, colour and pearl, but was brought trade by my friend. So guessing it would be a fair bit more without trade discount.

Looks great mate, nice wheel refurb.

Althought the paint stripped you should just have coated thickly and left them, rub down the next day, the paint would have flaked right off.

Looks great, red and black would have looked better.

 

[Nafoff]

So what's required is just a compressor and gun? So just compressor cost + £40...

Interesting.

If you're ever bored mate and fancy spraying something, call me

I'm up in Luton pretty often

Impressed with the spray gun refurb, Still half half seeing the pics... Nice refurb though.

 

[will.clio!]

Hehe stu they had to be 40's otherwise the inside of the wheels would hit the coilover. And looking at that pic seems you had yours wound down quite a but more than mine
