helllo thought id make a seperat thread for the VTS beast . just swapped my scruffy vts wheels over with a set of mint ones wrapped with michelin pilots. if sold the scruffy ones for 200 to a member on here.

heres pics of my car. put a laguna splitter on last night.! looks well scruffy lol but at least the things on haha. just used glue to hold it up! i wonder how long that will last.

purchased a set of 306 gti cyclones. ready to be colour coded green with a gloss white lip. also got a set of spax 60mm lowering springs to go on as well!! anyways heres pics of the car.some pics you lot have seen already but anyhoo

splitter has aot of excess glue, havent had time to sort it out yet! but will look neat when its all done. leave comments peeeeople .

these mint vts wheels will be up for sale without tyres soon btw.









tinted my rear lights, just the top half though!!



heres the splitter. and YES ill be tidying it up loool.





car should be looking like this when wheels are on. lower then the p/s though.



heres the cyclones purchased from jam. only one wheel lol cant wait to get started on these!

hi mate the splitter is off a renault laguna. worth around 40pounds. i can get hold of one if you like. i put it on the wrong way using bonding glue only. i think people do it another way. but i just wanted to put it on lol.

any interest on the vts wheels let me know. theyll be up fpr sale in 2 weeks.

306 wheels arrived. gettin stripped right now. will be getting painted GREEN spokes with WHITE lip. im looking for a carbon bonnet 2. would you think ANTHRACITE spokes with WHITE lip would suit it better. green would be way more different from everyone else.





stripping time



got bored so took me cloths off

found out that i have no wire brush.so fuking angry. had to leave bubbled paint on the wheels. found out using this nitro mors, how comes it strips the wheels down to just one coat? does this mean i haveto key it up and strip it again? or just sand down from here.?
