My Cinq! Opinions?

Hey guys, i'm new here and have been looking around for a little while, just thought i'd post up a couple of pics of my 899 cinq for you all to have a look at, I have done everything on the car myself, and am not wanting to go mad with it, all of the parts i have picked up have been obtained at good prices and fitted for ever less any comments taken on board. Also i was thinking of doing the wheels black as shown in Gaz's guide on home refurb, any thoughts on this would also be appreciated?

thanks again guys

Lenny

Looks good! Black wheels on a black car can look very nice, but I would be more concerned with getting centercaps first.

Re: My Cinq! Opinions?

Tell me about it! this is another thing, if anyone can help me with centrecaps for these wheels i'd be very appreciative! i've been thining about making some for a while as where i work we have a machine shop that i can use, but i dont want them to fall out . I don't even know the model name of the wheels either! Just that they're TSWs, picked up the whole set in the next town for £20 thou so can't grumble!

thanks again for the comments, keep em coming lol

Lenny

Re: My Cinq! Opinions?

Centercaps should look like this!
Ebay pic!
although he doesn't know what they are called either but I'm sure it's mirage!


Edit on further checking they are on the TSW website listed as discontinued.
Could make it tricky getting the caps.
Could always mail TSW and ask I had to do they same for my BKs

Re: My Cinq! Opinions?

I think it looks great, the alloys suit it perfectly the way they are!

i dont tend to like black wheels, they can sometimes look like steelies with wheeltrims missing!
