  • Had a quick looks like the badge I ordered had different numbers on the end so I've re-ordered another one from the link that was kindly posted.   Another quick pic to show the colour coded grille.

  • Thought I'd post up pics of my new wheels, just got to get my pennies together for some tyres then I can sell on my old wheels.      

  • Rebuilt my grille this evening....     As it was still daylight outside thought I'd swap them over, excuse the state of my car though lol       Also had my rear badge turn up but its too

Well the wheels are on although it didn't quite go to plan, my R32 calipers are just too big, the wheels just sat up against them, so had to keep the spacers on that I was hoping to take off the car but I'll take some pics when I get a chance so you can see how it looks.

Not the best pic in the world so I apologise.

Dan, your wheels look even better in the flesh.

Pleasure to meet you and your car yesterday. It has given me the push I need to get my grill painted.

Your old alloys look fab on my car too:

I now need to get it cleaned this week, grill painted next week and lowered some time soon!

I'm hoping to get mine cleaned this weekend and get some better pics, think I need to get my arches flared out though and get it dropped a bit more as I had to keep the wheel spacers on the car.

Gave the car a quick clean yesterday although its filthy again lol.

Will have to get my arches sorted next I think then hopefully drop it more :)

Just needs lowering a bit more like you say and possibly some smaller tyres or different spacers on the front.

Looking good all the same.

Really not having much luck with my car, had to avoid a car driving in the middle of road the other day, so ended up kerbing both n/s wheels. Tried looking into having my arches sorted the company I spoke to could only do the front arches so I've decided the R32 brakes are coming off next week and I'll go back to standard brakes to get the spacers off my car and I'll look into a brake set up that fit behind my wheels.

Dan,

As you are ignoring my PM's and text's, I can't get hold of you to let you know I have added some NEGATIVE feedback for the buckled alloys you sold me in the scallies and saints section, see post #404:

There is an old saying, 'what goes around comes around'

 

Maybe the post above yours is how he buckled the Neptunes and didn't tell you?

 

I did have some front calipers off the same guy a while back with no issues though

In fairness, he kerbed his new 19" alloys after he sold me his buckled Neptunes. I would not wish this on anyone despite saying what goes around comes around. I just wish we could have settled things amicably rather than him totally ignoring me.
