Default Wheels done

So I have deliberated for ages about this, but this winter killed off the wheels. They hadn;t been done since it rolled out the factory so they were well overdue. I wanted something a little different, so went down the anthracite route.

Next up is a bl00dy good detailing as the swirls are showing up again - another problem with the British winter, and what I think is very soft paintwork on the S.

Anyways thoughts please...



Ohh and this is the before shot (after she had a damn good clean up one day)

They look great. Do you mind if I ask how much, where and how long it all took?

Many thanks
David.

David Wheel Works Crawley - google them. £55 plus VAT per wheel, which is a powdercoat base, paint then lacquer.

Cheers for the feedback guys, I wasn;t sure when I first picked it up, but really liking it now. Agreed on the swirls they will be gone by the w/e.

The colour is a dark gloss anthracite, they look actually quite light in this pic as the sun was beaming down - long may it live!
