TheNewMe Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 Very Nice grill Macdaddy. Very individual too. Gotta ask you about those wheels. Are those just powdercoated standard wheels? They look awesome . I'm trying to picture them on my black MKIV. Go on, spill, spill; where did you get them done? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macdaddyR32 Posted May 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 me and a mate did them at his spray shop. cost £40 of paint. I've just took out the kerbing and sprayed the Aristo's Think the colours warm grey , which is a jaguar paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oli Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 [ QUOTE ] [/ QUOTE ] Really suits it, and Im loving the grille......but who the hell are LINGLONG tyres???!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macdaddyR32 Posted May 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 thanks, They needed sanding to prep for paint and take out the v-light kerbing they had. Then primed and sprayed plus lacquer . Dead easy really if you have the place to do it. Mate lent me his bodyshop spray booth. And for £40 in paint , a damn site cheaper than the £60 a wheel you could be charged Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrakeSnake Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 Very nice especially impressed with the wheels, tho my option is cheaper still.... the brake dust on them is Free!! Seriously tho, they look good. Always thought the DBP looks good with dark wheels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macdaddyR32 Posted May 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 Linglong tyres are well renowned across deepest darkest Peru for thier superior roadholding and wet weather grip Ok so i made that up, Yeah the last owner boasted he'd just fitted to new tyres. I couldnt help but laugh out loud and say who the hell are linglong. All i could think of was "Ting-tong" off Little Britain. Needless to say i'm desperately trying to scrub them lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khutula Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 I have had half the work done so far, and up to this point its ben free. Picture seems to lighten the wheels up - so they actually look blacker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mook Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 That'll be the brake dust effect, then... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
