Lol tbh mate I hated the black team d's from the moment they went on, I actually hate black wheels I just saw the deal for tyres and alloys to avoid refurbishing my 17's, but the tyres were used a lot more than I thought so it was a wasted exercise + 2 wouldn't hold pressure 1 because of a nail.
Glad to see the back of them tbh!
Wait for some SLR shots or maybe if I go any shows take a butchers in person I bet you'll change your mind - those pictures don't do the wheels justice at all

Thanks Matty, it's less imaginative, but it's the way on this car. I can see it all working together like a dream!
Exhaust though.. that is going to be interesting, might have to look in to the exhaust Edward has. I really fancy a pug sport, might have to destroy the janspeed hahaha

Brembos are back from painters... unfortunately they ran out of white decals so I now have black. Finish isn't dare I say it as good as my old ones, but the paint and application was different. These were sprayed, I used a caliper paint kit which was thick and glossy so on these you have a textured like finish almost like wrinkle paint. Don't look too bad tbh, if I don't like them when they're on I'll paint them and re-decal them in the future.
Starting to come together.
Now need braided lines
Xantia 3.0 v6 discs - will be Brembo or a brand i'd imagine, saying that they have my old discs in black.. if the finish lasts I'd go for them I think.
Decent pads
5.1 fluid
I do plan on changing things around, depends on if the decals are hard to remove if not they will do!

Lol you'll work it out soon guarantee it
If not by payday
Hmm soo un-organised with this car though. I just keep buying stuff even though I need parts for others to fit ect.
Next month though got to speak to addaz about lowering and possibly the brembos/ decat and mount going on got to get a price and see if it can be done in a day lol
After this RSTuning remap, then il save for cams I think custom map - stupid way to do it but cams are not 100% yet.
