Indeed mate,ideally you should remove the wax first but the polish will take it off as you said.

yep a secret for now as iv changed my mind so many times.
They cost me about £650 including postage, fitting kit and yoko S-drive tyres all round. quite steep but they are quite unique, and perfect for what i wanted

Car looks awesome mate! Can't wait to see some pics of it sitting on the new rims

So i flushed my engine out today (Wynns engine flush), new oil (castrol GTX 15w40), oil filter and wynns oil treatment because my car sounds like a diesel took it out for a spin and its so much quieter already.
then i was thinking, the air intake to the standard airbox gets its air from inside the wheel arch right? so now the car is slammed, wouldnt the air flow/source be restricted? is there anywhere else that i can route it to? (1.4 mpi engine)

I just took mine off - there was f all suction through that pipe leading to the wheel arch

I wouldn't be too fussed about where it is routed until u get an induction kit

So Rimstyle got these 2weeks earlier than expected, so this morning got a lovely suprise!!!
Keskin KT3 gloss black with polished face and lip. front 7jx15 et35 rear 8jx15 et30 all wrapped in 195/45 Yokohama S-drive

Down'n'out


also sprayed my mirrors black, so now i think it looks good with the theme and ties in with the wind deflectors

Looking really good bud everything ties in very nicely good choice on the wheels ....top work

Very shiny also

Cheers Alex, wheels were a hard choice, didn't wont something too common, although common mods are common because they work well. wanted to try something a bit different, and im glad it works!
