Dblock Posted March 18, 2011 Posted March 18, 2011 im in such a bad mood i think i might sell them and buy 20's instead to cheer myself up. anyone want a set of wheels with tyres if cheap yes love the gear knob its "classy" Quote
Husky Posted March 19, 2011 Author Posted March 19, 2011 rims about 825 quid (will still need refurb) front tyres are good condition 175 quid rear tyres aren't worth mentioning but i'd leave them on for you. That's £1000 Quote
spursmaddave Posted March 19, 2011 Posted March 19, 2011 Don't quite understand how curbing a really expensive alloy wheel would make you want to sell them cheaply and buy even more expensive and bigger alloy wheels Quote
Husky Posted March 19, 2011 Author Posted March 19, 2011 Don't quite understand how curbing a really expensive alloy wheel would make you want to sell them cheaply and buy even more expensive and bigger alloy wheels because I really don't have the time to get the car up on stands and take all the wheels to a refurb then bring them all back again etc. i'm just being lazy Quote

Husky Posted March 19, 2011 Author Posted March 19, 2011 yeah basically like that, except mine arent really "shagged" just need a touch up. The other reason is that I'm going to be supplying these wheels soon so i need my set to be perfect. And potentially might go for 20's depending on what five axis are looking for in the UK demo car we shall see. Quote

Yes yours are not shagged, hence you would get more than £100 on fleabay Can I ask a really really stupid and obvious question without you hating me Why didn't you have your rim protectors on Quote
Husky Posted March 19, 2011 Author Posted March 19, 2011 I took them off because its not winter and I have a meet tomorrow Quote
Husky Posted March 19, 2011 Author Posted March 19, 2011 Took the lights off today and modded them Before: After: Clear strips White light Hid bulbs 80W main beam bulbs Silver indicator bulbs LED sidelight bulbs (to put in tomorrow morning as I left them in the garage) Swissvax polished and sealed No photoshop involved, they do look that sexy, i'm so impressed with the Swissvax product I would highly reccomend it (it smells ****ing amazing too! ) They still need sealed all the way round as I ran out of sealant. The car is currently sat outside looking a bit sorry for itself like this: Quote
UNABASHED Posted March 19, 2011 Posted March 19, 2011 Love the lights, I wish I had the cash available to get them done myself! Quote
Husky Posted March 19, 2011 Author Posted March 19, 2011 Love the lights, I wish I had the cash available to get them done myself! yeah that's the only catch with doing my own lights, i don't get paid for the burns on my hands If you wanted them done the same as mine: £60 to split them £40 for the clear strip Bulbs @ cost +p&p Takes 2 days + delivery time either way I have a list of people to get through but PM if interested Quote
Husky Posted March 20, 2011 Author Posted March 20, 2011 Seems somewhere along the way i forgot to post the Zunsport grille noob fail here it is, it was over a year ago this was fitted now, i absolutely love it and its like the day i bought it completely scratch and chip free (unlike the bumper!). Quote
Blacky Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 Coming along nicely. Lights look great. Get that frille off Quote
Husky Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 UPDATE: Been quite slack in the updates so here are few Used matte black wrap I had lying around to wrap the centre of the front bumper, I really love this and think it finishes the front nicely and goes with the zunsport grille well. Also Got myself a new numberplate which I'm quite chuffed with, I think it completely changes the look of the car. Wanted to change this one for a while now, Installed a set of JDM window switches so I have one touch control of the passenger window from both driver and passenger side. Also this means I can control the windows after the key has been removed for a short while, a simple thing but makes a big difference to my sanity as I always forget to wind my windows up until the key is out the ignition.

Ian Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 Took you ages to unveil that plate The window switches used to annoy me aswell Quote
Husky Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 Took you ages to unveil that plate The window switches used to annoy me aswell yeah I know, I was a complete slacker in sending the stuff to DVLA as I moved house, it was finally legal on the sunday of wales so I could put it on Quote
Husky Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 I will watch with interest on PH. they can go spin on it Quote
BulletMagnet Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 hahaha loving the numberplate FTMFW!!!!!!! Quote
Husky Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 hahaha loving the numberplate FTMFW!!!!!!! Quote
spursmaddave Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 hahaha loving the numberplate FTMFW!!!!!!! He is just a copycat Quote
BulletMagnet Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 so hang on, the JDM switches are ALL with auto mode? Is it straight plug and play or is fiddeling needed? Also, did you finally figure out how to make dimming puddlelights that work in sync with the dome light? (Without blowing the BMC?) Quote
