At the mo ive just got some standard vtr wheels on it, has anyone got any pics of an icelandic grey mk2 vtr with different colout wheels? Just looking for some ideas, was thinking about black with some rim tape?
Mods so far (if i makes a difference) are beesting aeriel, smoked side repeaters and smoked rear lights. Will try get some pics up. And looking to get some black angel eyes :D
Any ideas/pics would be great
Cheers :y:
Black VTR wheels on mine :)

Mine are white VTR Wheels, look ok i suppose, but my whole theme is fast road/slag, so im not too bothered how the car looks.

Thought id read in your progress thread they'de been done proffessionally?
Are they easy to do for someone who aint done anything like that before?

they were on the car when i bought it, so im not sure, but there chipped around the nuts and valves so who knows, just need a little touch up really.
i never done them myself, but should be simple enough, deflate the tyres, push walls down tape all round then spray all over, as a quick change that is, obv to get it pro looking would need sanding down filling primer spraying etc.

Im unsure whether to have a crack myself, bit strapped for cash as the missus has just booked us a bloody expensive holiday! Came home to find that out! So dont wanna spend out the money and do it myself, only to have to have to have it done proffesionally cos i done a shit job!
Does anyone know how much it would be to have them done black proffessionaly?:D

Jambo gun metal looks amazing. How did you spray them though, just got the can and sprayed on or did you do preps before.

Steve - Not sure if they do it but I know two places that refurb wheel and i believe paint aswell. 'Spit and polish' in Tonbridge and 'MagicMend' in Sittingbourne.
Worth a look...
