..... so heres what they look like on the car





then we realised that the center caps where still gray and had a pug sign on them found quite a colection of center caps lol.


and had 2 more on my car and 4 more on another set of wheels lol.


so we sliced off the pug badge with a stanly knife and they came out like this



then rubed them down with wet and dry.




then primed them and rubed them down agen lol.




then whent to paint them done one coat on two and ran out of paint lol.



so thats the wheels so far also think i might get some little citroen stickers for the center caps.

opinions on what to do about the wheel ??

thanks.

also next job to lower it how much do you think?

think im gana go for 40mm on the frunt. how much you all think on the back?

regarding the wheels dude, pop the tyre off the rim mask the tyre off and repaint it (with the tyre on if you know what i mean) then just blow the tyre up again when laquer dries
