Haha ok mate, I have them. Been sat in my loft for a few weeks while we used the garage to paint the BMW for the charity race (it is looking bad ass by the way!)

When I got them, they were in OK nick. A few dings in the polished lips which I managed to get out with a series of plastic mallets. Not I've been polishing like a nutter and my fingers are sore as hell :)

 

Sh*t i-phone pic but you get the idea, still got one more to do before Stamford hall this weekend.

 

*NOTE: THERE WOULD BE A PIC HERE BUT FORUM SEEMS TO NOT BE WORKING FOR PICTURE UPLOAD

Finally managed to sort a pic out using tapatalk. Wheels will be going on the car tonight.

 

Took about 5 hours of polishing so far as they were pretty tarnished.

These or CHs on a blackberry look stunning - of course our 'Wheel Don' Zak has had both and they both looked brilliant. Just add cream leather seats! Your car is really developing into a showpiece. Simply brilliant.

Few camera phone pics of them on the car, I did try some 5mm spacer on the back for extra poke but 8J and ET30 proved too much for my standard arches :( back to ET35 and all seems well.....now need to clean the rest of it for Stamford hall on Sunday :)

One of the best wheels for Corrado, shame they are so heavy

Great looking wheel on a Blackberry Rado!

Very nice, lovely wheels especially on this colour..

 

I had a look back to the early pages of your thread and this is a different car, fair play to you mate for raising the standard...

[Hofmiester 10]

With all the polishing going on for the event this weekend, I decided to get some proper pictures taken with my SLR.....decent camera makes a huge difference!!

Sailed the MOT today, tester said it was a credit too me. Also let me have a good look underneath while on the ramps for corrosion and he was saying it is mint, no rot.......awesome!

Well done, it's always a nice feeling to ace a MOT after a rebuild :)

[borachris 0]

Awesome news :)

[Ray1965 10]

Well done. Looks great the car, RH wheels look great as well.

My lad has bought some for his MK5 golf. Suits it well.
