Hows the car mate? You managed to sort out the intercooler piping? I know you said you had a few probs at the beginning!
Righto, I decided to get my BBS resprayed, i had them in Daytona grey with a Matt finished, i got tired quickly of the matt so decided to go for a gloss finish this time, it really brings the metallic paint out and looks super when the sun hits them, can't wait to get them on now and get the cupra slammed a bit more.
These are gonna rock with my refurbed Brembo's and other bits on order,i have gone on a bit of spending spree lately!
Some pics of the goodies that arrived today, i have new valves and BBS valve caps that will finish them off nicely.

More, i just had them mounted, before hand i put on 3 coats of super resin polish and then 3 coats of poor boys wheel sealant.I also put on new shorter valve stems and BBS valve caps.They are freakishly close to the the brembo's as i put on 3mm spacers instead of 5mm this time round to get the well under the arch as much as posible, They look well on though and compliment the Brembo's no end as i just respray them the week before and put on new decals.
Some more money shots.!

I think you mis-quoted there rsmith!
yeah lad. it was me who was askin. im only down the road from ya sure haha.
Stewarts in North city business park dublin, they do all prestige motors and refurbs.
Totaly chuffed mate, i had then done a few months back but i wasn't really happy with them, the gloss finished on the metallic paint really sets them off.
good to see someone else with OCD too...will be following this thread mate because it seems you are going to create a masterpiece. Iwould be too scared to drive it incase it got dirty!!
Have to say BBS CHs are the only wheel bar the standard ones that truly suit the LCR. I would love a set but i would have them in bright brightest silver.
just a quick question, i read somewhere that the standard alloys and BBS CHs are almost identical in weight but do you know how much the BBS reps are? I only get the best stuff for my car but genuine BBSs would get nicked in an instant around my way- fact.
as i said nice car dude

Cheers Mate, yeah i am totally OCD which a PITA some times.Regarding the reps its hard to say, i have seen some truely awful reps knocking about and then i have seen some really really good ones.
The genuine BBS CH are about 25/26lbs i am pretty sure.
I must get some more stuff on this thread, i went a bit nuts with the metal polisher last week, nothing was spared.
I would look for a decent set of 2nd hand BBS and get them refurbed, it would still be cheaper than the £1400 that they cost new.
Cheaper than another set of bbs ch tho dunno what ur moaning at real lms are 3500 for 18" and just under 4 k for 19s lol
