No but it won't cost as much as a new set of wheels as i cant afford the bbs i wanted.

been looking at these as they are local they seem legit

If you get a quote could you ask how much for a set of pro race 1.2s refurbed in gloss black please bud

 

[Buzz123]

Yeah I will do pal.

i just rang that place and for stripping, removal of tyres, fitting and including vat its £350.40 for all four.

And they said if you drive in at 8am they'll be done by 5pm the same day. Also get a 12 month warranty sounds great to me.

 

[who me]

You looked at cas coatings bradford, if you can remove your tyres you can get your wheels powder coated for less the £20 a wheel

 

[Buzz123]

What whys it so cheap?

And just realised how am I gonna stand my car without any wheels or anything

Axle stands.

It will cost £10 per wheel to remove the tyres + £10 per wheel to re fit them (at least)

 

[Buzz123]

but then i'l have to buy the stands. so 350 isn't cheap then.

 

[who me]

Could you borrow any wheels off anyone, ive heard good things about cas coatings would have mine done thare if i could get some spare wheels

 

[Buzz123]

I am sure I could steal some winter tyres from my work. i'll change that to borrow. or I maybe able to get hold of axle stands haha I just didnt think

 

[Tfsi_Mike]

Axle stands come in handy and with trade card theyre not too expensive anyway dude

 

[Buzz123]

so my screws still aren't here so I am about to set off back to germany tonight so I fitted it all.

Also pictures of my wind deflectors up close

And my fan adjuster things in matt black

 

[Buzz123]

Also fitted my gimp mask that i got from mike ready for my long journey

 

[Tfsi_Mike]

Will save your bonnet & wings dude. I always forgot to fit it & my front end is hammered :-( excuse for a carbon bonnet though

Have a good drive

 

[Tfsi_Mike]

Which bits are matt black on heater adjuster? posted wrong pic?

 

[Buzz123]

The tab thing is matt black and kept the silver bit on the end if you look back on the thread you'll see tabs in grey
