i got a set of Le Castellet of ebay last. they were in a bad enough nick, but nothing a couldnt handle, so i done all the work my self and painted them and all.
so i went for a chrome edge and silver centre.




thats them there, so im looking something new for 2009, they are going a a silver 6n2, so any ideas of that would be nice for the new year

they look really nice mate

Very nice

thanks guys

so any ideas, for new paint jobs then?

how did you do the lip?
i got the same look bbs ls tho (no split rim) and gonna do the same as you but black centre.
Im using elbow grease and a selection of emery cloth, and a dremel with a mop and autosol.

i used masking tape and keeping a close eye on the rim
then with sand paper from 200 to 2500 and they with polishing stones and buffs and then peek just to clean it up, then a layer of varnish over it to protect it

dont think i done a bad job from what they were like lol

they've come out great! much better improvement from the original.
though it was along that line, did you do it stationary or did you use some form of lathe or axel stands on the car?

just stuck them on some new paper on the drive way
