S-Red Some slight changes! - Page 3

I`m confused, Robbo. What wheels did you have on before you got the Type S wheels? Surely it came with those as standard?

No. It came with ES/Sport wheels because the dealer sourced the car with 18" Blade wheels but wanted too much for them so and I accepted 17" Ex's instead.

Your wheels are also very clean and immaculate!

You can't tell tho !

Hope the weather is bad Saturday then I wont feel guilty about having a dirty car next to yours, plus "our lass" kerbed the alloys again

Munro · 7th January 2008, 22:09

I like the Calipers , how did you prep them for painting ?

robbo51 · 8th January 2008, 07:06

Just degreased them with Meths first.
Then 2 coats of Smooth Gold Hammerite.
Dead easy but you might want to invest in a small paintbrush.
Some bits are a bit fiddly

robbo51 · 3rd May 2008, 14:44

Rear spoiler (not CTR type) fitted today.
Many thanks to oli_typesgt
