looks great mate. quick question, how did you do a 'quick' clean on the calipers? i wouldnt mind mine lookin like that..

Nice . Forge quick shift, got one myself

Would love to find a tatty set of these in 17" for the mongrel for track use.

For the calipers I took advantage of Halfords 3 for 2 and got some Autoglym Engine Cleaner. £6.99 on its own. Squirted it on and used an old toothbrush to lift the dirt, then pressure washed it, repeated then dried. They came out better than I thought actually.

Very nice indeed.

great tip mate, thanks.

I like those. Really nice!

Spot on. Purposeful and light too

That finish works very well with Black Magic too

They look proper!

Wonder what they'd look like on the Candy White chariot?!

Mate I drove past you earlier!

I nearly orgasmed over your wheels lol. They are sexy as fook!

Where abouts was this? Normally good at spotting other Vrs's

You was waiting to turn right to go down Gelhard Road by the Porsche Garage.

I was going through the lights towards Makro.

Ah that was on the test drive, I heard loads of flicking and banging and thought wtf, then realised it was the stones flicking off that had got stuck where the sticker was on the tyre.

Lol, all the way home - I kept thinking I want those wheels.

Do you live close? I work nr white rose so was heading home.

Yea just off Elland road.

Hiya stakeknive wheels look cool were you inspired by my smoked chrome ones when we met! I would have repainted calipers after I cleaned them yours look dull , and you can get matching plastic bolt covers from skoda, the paint is only £5 by the way, needs to be cheap lent it to will skoda and he spilt 3 quarters of it!

No - just genuinely concerned about you losing your "uniqueness"
