    the standard alloys look so much better in a dark colour as opposed to silver.

    Anthracite colour shades ftw

    indeed thats what i thought when i got my gt the body work and wheels were a shambles, so im slowly restoring it to its former glory.

    ive finished my interior minus the stereo, next is the engine and gearbox then im getting an abarth kit fitted

    but im really pleased with the outcome. Should hopefully have the rims fitted to my car in the next week.

    looks like you missed the wheels and sprayed the laminate flooring instead!
    looks good, i like the colour

    whats a sealer? like a polish? so brake dust doesnt stick to them?

    just ordered some tyres, should have the wheels fitted on by the end of next week.

    VIICKS: There ment to be a different shade :P i was just going to sell these rims and get a set of gt3 rims but i decided against it and i wanted to do something a bit different.

    I hope they just look good on the car though!
