New Wheels on my wagon
« on: 19 December 2011, 12:30:33 »
With the assistance of Mike (Gooseman) Got some Elite wheels fitted to replace the CD wheels. Thanks to Mike for the wheels and company and they have made a nice difference to the look of the car. Here are some pics.

Massive improvement Dan!!  :y

Just a quick note though.  They are actually MV6 rims, rather than Elite ones.  ;)

Do you want a set of front fog lights for the old girl?

I thought they were used for MV6 and Elite but i could be wrong. Im in two minds about front fogs lights. One one hand it will complete the MV6/Elite look but on the other hand i quite like the way the front looks without them. Opinions welcome though folks.

The elite wheels are very subtly different. The 5 spokes are completely flat, whereas the MV6 one have the design detail line about an inch in from the rim.  :y

They should look good, as the wheels have recently been refurbished and nearly new tyres as well  ::) .

Think Dan just got so excited about the wheels on his car, that he didn't keep hearing me tell him they're MV6 wheels  ::) ;D.

You know where I am if you want anything else Dan - though better be quick though  ;) ;D  :y
