First used Red Scotchie to clean and scuff them up, gave them a good rinse then dry. I used Hycote Primer, Paint & Lacquer. Came up really nice.
Can't wait to get the other side to match.

Awesome, how long it take you to do the the 2 wheels?

Around 6hrs. The cleaning and drying took up most time.

F*ck. Forgot to take picture again.

Think I'm doing mine this colour as my car is more of a grey colour and black might not work.

Finally took a quick pic this morning. Not the best. But it will do for now

They look great!

they look pretty awesome bro! (i have an fiat stilo grey coloured can you suggest me on what color to paint the rims? (i want to turn stilo's colour to yellow) which one should fit to yellow and which to grey? thanks!

Thanks. They really do look better in real life. The picture doesnt really do it much justice.
When the weather is better or I am not busy at work I will try get some better ones - maybe on the weekend.

Personally if it was me I would still go for gloss black for grey or yellow. But it depends on the shade of grey you have. You might like the the same colour that JordanB08 put up at the bottom of page 3?

The image I put up was a customer review on this product:- http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/...5495&langId=-1&productId=764697&storeId=10001

I've used Halfords paints before and they have been pretty good but if anyone has any reason to not use them please let me know.

I would only say not to use the Halfords Lacquer - My brother in law used it on his Exeo wheels and it peeled off the wheels within a week. But the paint on his wheels still looks solid.

right now the colour of the car is the factory-grey if you can search on google
i am willing to change the color to Yellow (factory based)

I like it ! Where did you buy wind deflectors?

I would say Black for the wheels - but then again others will think a different colour would look better. Entirely up to you.

If my car has done just over 40k miles, should I be expecting to change/replace any of the suspension anytime soon?

Just changed over to a pair of this 'Ultra Power' bulbs (the ones in the case now are the ones I just took out the car). Doesn't look to be any difference in the bulbs during the day time. Will update you on night time difference soon.
They only cost £7 off Amazon but are £20+ on the manufactures website.

Can some one tell me how to get this bugger out so I can get my K&N in?? Please???

3x7mm bolts round the bottom of it, have a look at my thread I've put some pics on

Thats great bravo86gaz. Thanks. When you put your K&N filter in did you put it in the plastic housing or did you remove that and just have the K&N filter sitting itself?
