excellent! agree the hex caps in silver or polished would add definition but thats a minor point, good work

yeah i am gonna get some of the thinner polished hex caps.... looks like i am gonna get some from the fatherland for £60 a set! not bad, just ran out of money towards the end... not a major issue at the moment as i have a few other things i am wanna sort out first like the ride height.. all the same they completely change the look of the car i nearly creamed myself when i first put them on... :oops:

 

They are also quite a bit lighter than my D90s aswell.... which helps. :)

The car is moonlight blue so not quite there yet... On first impressions it looks very similar to yours hence why my girlfriend couldnt work out how i had somehow managed to get my car onto the showground without driving it... LOL :) .. still i suppose we have both got good taste in wheels....

I took an angle grinder to them.... carefully that is... managed to take pretty much all of the main part of the lip away.. then re-sealed.

 

I thought was going to have problems with the inner arch coming away from the outer arch, but had no problems of the sort.

 

I think i could go lower but i wanna leave it for a while and then set it all up properly on a proper flat surface so i can get it sitting evenly.. my drive is amazingly wonky.... 8)
