by the looks of the car in his avatar it isnt a VTS, you wont be able to polish them up you would have to get it chromed

[Dave86]

Nah, its not a vts. Is it expensive to get it chromed?? Any ideas? Or would it be easier to paint it instead?

[Predator_R32]

just paint it mate, they look good the same colour as your car :y: mine cost about 120 when i got it but they have come down quite a bit :)

Sorry about the pic size. Photobucket wont let me resize. Cheers mate!

here we go mate i think gold will set it off a treat imo, then all you have to do is pressure wash the engine use some WD40 to shine up the black plastic bits and it will look :y:

Nice one mate cheers!!! I can't decide which i prefer tbh. I'll have to have a think! The sprayer that did one of the panels on my car said it was hard to find the exact match as the car. So it wouldnt be the same gold. Rep on the way mate. Much appreciated!

[Predator_R32]

did you give him a paint code??

its on the top strut in engine bay or on the sticker where the tyre pressures are, i did a guide to tell you where you can find it and which letters to use :)

same colour as your looks the best
