Rob :)

EDIT: sorry about the **** picture quality, my camera phone is getting old now, doh! (n)
 
Just a few points here Rob you went for black mesh I think alloy/silver would have been more distinctive [YOUR choice tho] and Where do you put your shopping ;)
 
shopping, lol - well thts a chuck it ova the shoulder onto the back seat jobbie! :)

I got silver/alloys mesh with the grille, put it up against the car and thought it just didnt look right with the colour of the car. So i went for the black which i fink gives it more of an suttle look - which is wot i am after :)

I was going to go for some of the MG mesh stuff like what wimmy recently put on his car - but to get enough to do the front end of me car was £70 something quid just for mesh :eek: (i nearly had a heart attach to say the least, lol) So i went for the black which still set me back £40, which i thought was steap for mesh again!!!

im not a massive fan of claws but hey ho thats just a personal opinion

Yeah, i was finking about a change to the fiat multispokes! But ive only just brought some new tyres a few month back, which are still like new? I havent seen anotha stilo with them on yet tho! What do you fink to the photoshop with the centre blacked/anthracite finish?

Although i would like some 18's :chin: - decisions, decisions... i fink i'll wait till uve got your 18's and see wht they look like on a 50mm drop wiv rubbage,etc (y)

though i fink a holiday is on the cards before anything else! as i havent had one this year, although i did have 3last year lol :D
 
I do quite like that colour change on the photoshop, im sure i have seen something similar done.

The reason im looking at changing mine is because they need refurbing and i need new front tyres so thought it was an ideal opportunity to buy some new ones!

Personally i think the 18s will be fine, using the calculator in one of my other threads it works out 18's with a 255/40 tyre comes out about .1 inch larger overall diameter than my current 17's with a 255/45 tyre
 
Looks very nice chap.


I'm with Matt on the claw wheels, but they do look v. good on your photoshop, black with silver rim. do it DO IT!(y)
 
photoshop looks good. the stilo abarth 5 spokes look good with the black spokes and polished lips.

three spoke alloys are a bit bomber jacket. but the photo shop of them looks pretty darn cool :cool: get them done (y)
