Wheel Change
« on: 23 May 2009, 19:01:03 »
Decided to change my wheels, well just one, to a different colour. I have been wanted to do this for a while now and decided to do it after a long time waiting for the weather to come good. So here it is what do you all think?

This is after I had done a slight repair




And These ones are after I repsrayed them




After I laquered them




And these ones are with the wheel on the car.




Hope you Like.

Paul :y

Thats the thing they don't look black in colour they look more Graphite greyish, but still looks good though, just need to get some more paint and do the rest of them.
