My 30th Anniversary CTR (Original Post Updated 07/02/2008)

Think we only have 2 30AE over here in Jersey, one was silver until it was mutilated by some bloke who sprayed it bright yellow, cut holes in the dash to put use less gauges in, replaced the seats with Cobra (why!?) matching yellow seats, 19" chrome rims and the final insult manga graphics all over it. It looks awful.
 
Finally had enough spare wonga to get the alloy's refurbed. Been wanting to get them done since I bought the car. The previous owners obviously couldn't parallel park for sh1t!

Some before shots:

Pretty much all 4 alloys had fairly nasty kerbing all the around the outer edge. Blistering was starting to creep up around the centre caps and brake dust and grime was impregnated in most corners. The H's had faded a bit too.

Due to some evasive action to avoid a sideswipe, I had also taken a rather large chunk out of the wheel and tyre of my offside rear wheel...

So after £200 and a day without the car (I had to borrow my old car for the day, that was fun :evil:), here are the finished results:

I had my new tyres fitted and balanced as well. The new tyres are a vast improvement :twisted:.

As the colour is slightly different, the centre caps were also sprayed. I got some shiny new H's from Mook. They're reflective and in the right light, look :cool:

All in all, well chuffed
 
Thanks guys. I have become the most careful driver in the world now though. I parked in the city the other day and had to get a taxi to the kerb!
