Love the new colour mate! Is that shadow chrome?

thought i'd give it the once over with a sponge before putting the wheels back on.

They are black chrome powdercoat. Done by Aerocoat in Great Yarmouth.

That's going to be a great mod mate!!! Subtle but so nice

 

[Deleted member 12147]

That's what i'm after, i know it would be easier to just buy some mesh off ebay and shove it in but i want a more oem look.

Yeah will look lovely mate, you going to plastic weld it? What colour you painting the plastics then?

 

[Deleted member 12147]

Either plastic weld or epoxy glue, gonna be oem colour like my front grille surround.

What colour is that mate? Been looking for the standard colour for a while. I'm matte black but want the standard grey back

 

[Deleted member 12147]

It's a touch darker than oem but it's the nearest I found.

Thats awesome, had I known about these I probably would had kept the lowering springs for a bit longer instead of splashing out on the coilovers straight away as I weren't happy with the front height

They aren't off a Porsche. They are Mille Miglia Cup 3 wheels, Mille Miglia originally made the Porsche wheels but they made a run of VAG Fitment (5x100 direct bolt on) wheels, which is what I have. I just stuck Porsche style centre caps in.

Nice mate, that's a nice added drop.

Info - prices etc etc please, pm if u want.

Jealous how you sourced the cups in 5x100 fitment!
