great minds think alike, I need to get that sorted. I bought the wheels like that so i didnt have to paint my originals. Now that i know i like the colour I will get it sorted. My other intention is to have the chequer plating on the side steps powder coated black.

Yeah that will finish it. My new one has sawtooth alloys but think the side steps look out of place with the silver on top.

Got a few more bits to add on the car, some front mud stuff dirt d fenders (seem better quality than they look on the pics), got a genuine nas rear step and a drl bumper from matt at fcx. All are getting painted in santorini black, hoping to have them on at some point next week, then im going to try and get some time to dinitrol the underside before the salt comes out.

Collected my fcx bumper on my way home from work, its been colour coded and looks fantastic! Just bolted the lights in place. Now I cant wait to get it fitted.

Very nice 90,
What size are your boost alloys and tyres and what are the pros and cons of the spacers |

Byronavitch.... Thanks .... The alloys are 16" the tyres are 235 85 16. I like the look you get with the spacers that wider stance. Turning circle is improved, and i think there is less roll with them on..... Didnt make that much difference on the 2.2 but the 300tdi was a lot more stable round bends etc

I think mine are made by bulldog they are 30mm ones. Ive not had any issues from them. But as said Ionly bought them because I like the look.
I love the look of the black boosts on black or stornoway, i think there are a few guys on here with black boosts on stornoway. |
