Gets my vote - although not having a polished rim makes the tyres blur into the rims so they don't look so low profile - still looks good though!!!

Yeah looking good! what about a set of these front lights?

Might look good with the smoked rear lights you have. Could even go for smoked side lights too. Just a thought cos when you see the car side on, the front lights look outta place. You seem to have asort of black'n'blue theme goin on! Nice!

Kinda like it. I'd get all black bits coded blue though.

Hmmm - I wondered about that but then thought well I think it kinda co-ordinates with the wheels - matching handbag and shoes - so leave it as it is :shock:

Should I get my coat now :wink:

Yeah might as well (get your coat)

:lol:

Nah j/k - It looks a bit choppy now with black bits everywhere. Would be nicer to have it all smooth and in one color. But maybe I should be getting my coat...!

thanks for the comments guys.

i got them done at Romax in Stockton (just near the A66) for 150. i think that was a great price considoring they took tyres on and off aswel and rebalenced them.

next set of tyres are going to be a lower profile i think and those headlights look great, where do you get a hold of them?

and dont worry all colour coding and smoothing is going to happen eventually! just need to get the money saved up as im spending loads on the car at the minute! :lol: so yeh i agree, does look abit crappy with all the black bits.

that looks quite nice... would be nicer if you still had a silver/chrome ring on the edge of your rim.

but its nices to see the results.

im thinking of applying a chrome paint on my VW barcalona's....

goes with the bling bling on my car! lol
