[UPDATE]
Bought some new plates to replace the "shake and bake" ones that came on the car when i bought it
Fitted
I also bought some wind deflectors (these came in a huge box)
Fitted
I finally got chance to go to Romax to ask about getting the wheels refurbed and powdercoated. They didnt have the colour i was looking for so me and Pete/Ped decided that we would go to a bodyshop and ask for a quote............£400+ excluding vat.
Pete said we could spray them ourselves and save a small fortune. After some umming and ahring i decided to go for it (if it went balls up id just pay for them to be done at a later date)
After a trip to Halfrauds we came back with a tin of Ford Tibetan Gold (from a capri i think).
Started by checking the colour on a centre cap
We liked so cracked on with some prep work and first wheel in primer
Action shot
First few sprays of bronze
After deciding that we loved the colour we needed to make a trip back to Halfords for more supplies
With my wheel still drying i had to use one of petes
Pete wanted some pictures
Anyway, more paint
