i bought mine with 20mm spacers for 200 and there were completely unmarked in terms of kerb marks just bad lacquer peel, with 4 toyo proxes

best bet is to find a set which need a refurb and then get your hands dirty.

they are the easiest wheels in the world to do.

Is it literally a case of getting a brillo and a decent tub of metal polish to get the polished lip on them and do the centres have the peeling problem as well?

Cheers.

Not bad, where are you all getting them from, i can only find some 17" ones on eBay and only 2 of them anyway??

Cheers in advance!

Picking up some BBS RXII's next Tuesday that are an unfinished project so should keep me busy for the time being. I'm feeling a polished lip, but not sure on the centres, what do you guys think?

£80 from a local guy in 5 stud, but far from finished so will have to get a move on!!!

Just want something different for the show season!!

Cheers, James.

Just looked at the prices of the tyres i wanted....and nearly died lol, ah well, its the price you pay i guess, any input on the centres colour, still undecided...

Righteo then guys, quick update!!

Brand spanking new GTi splitter and honeycomb grill fitted and looking niceeeeee!!! :)

Will get pics up asap.

Oh and bodywork will be getting done over easter at a cost of £600 mainly because of the paint, good old pealesant jazz blue!!!

It will consist of all the work that needs doing, none of it was done by me might i add!!!, new front wing and paint, repaint bonnet (good old stone chips, about 50-60 of the buggers!!), passenger side sill needs pulling out and repainting, full body machine polish/t-cut etc and bumper scuffs and such sorted all ready for the shows.

Cheers guys!!

Here are the highly anticipated pics i have been promising. I had just cleaned the car when i took these and it looks sooooo shiny!!!!

Let me know what you think of the grill and splitter, enjoy....

Looks very mean now in my opinion, much nicer!!!!
