Cool stuff, going to go for the standard colour or something different?

High power silver I think mate.

I did originally want fry over black or darker, but it's been done to death, and dark wheels means the tyres constantly need dressing otherwise it looks cheap and nasty.

I'll try keep it a bit more oem really. :)

Cheers mate, took 8 hours to do all 4 wheels, 3 layers each and then spent an hour and a half cleaning the car!

Update

Well after spending a long time sealing the wheels this weekend I decided to give the car a good clean at the jet wash. I finished that off with treating all the glass and using Dodo Juice Red Mist quicker detailer on the paint work. Really happy with the results :

Took this as a few people have mentioned the Skoda name when they found out I bought one, you need to be able to take the mic out of yourself sometimes!

Also did a quick video of controlling the music on the USB stick through the stereo (only one folder on the stick)

 
Cheers mate, was looking on machine mart last night and might go for something like THIS. Already have a Clarke impact wrench and happy with it.

That'll more than do the job mate - Only problem on the LCR (even with standard suspension) I needed to jack it up slightly with the widow-maker before I could get the jack under. That was before using the low-profile jack I posted a link to. It's a lot more money, but worth it if you jack your car up more than 2x a year lol!

Even the small things you're doing are great! It's those type things that I hardly have time to get around to. I've had LED number plate bulbs sitting on the hall table for about 4months now waiting to go on the Ibiza.
