#1: Wondering if Author: alanamh, Posted: Fri May 13, 2011 5:36 am ---- I should spray my wheel trims black? They are proper peugeot trims that came with the car. Do you think it will look ok? And also what's the best spray to use?

Thats a first, usually its i've had enough of these ugly wheel trims.
I have seen wheel trims sprayed black on a Lupo, Id stay away from it.
#10: Re: Wondering if Author: alanamh, Posted: Fri May 13, 2011 6:30 am ---- I'd rather stick with my original trims no point buying black ones would rather just buy a can of spray lol. But i will keep away if you guys dont think it is a good idea.
And i dont want alloys cause i think my car looks fine without them, not going to get them just cause everyone else has

well you obviously don't think it looks fine because you're asking for advice on how to make it look better
#14: Re: Wondering if Author: alanamh, Posted: Fri May 13, 2011 6:41 am ---- haha well doors are a bit different, they are necessary lol however alloys are not as long as my car has wheels and tyres thats all that matters
#15: Re: Wondering if Author: MrrNoName, Location: UKPosted: Fri May 13, 2011 6:46 am ---- get these, they are nice (as nice as trims can be lol)

#37: Re: Wondering if Author: bashyy1, Location: Milton KeynesPosted: Fri May 13, 2011 9:32 am ---- I've had wolfrace alloys since Ive had mine and they haven't corroded or peeled at all.....
#38: Re: Wondering if Author: Danw_VVT, Location: Herts/LondonPosted: Fri May 13, 2011 9:35 am ---- alot of them do corrode mate. all depends on how well you look after them etc any alloy is subject to it.
the £1,800 ones on the old dears golf are f****d because of the chemicals the foreigners use down the local hand wash
it happens just wolfrace and ripspeed are more commonly known for it
#39: Re: Wondering if Author: alanamh, Posted: Fri May 13, 2011 9:53 am ---- I will check out eBay first and a few sites online want to go for 14 inch as just bought 2 new tyres and would be a waste to not use them
#40: Re: Wondering if Author: Danw_VVT, Location: Herts/LondonPosted: Fri May 13, 2011 9:56 am ---- look for baby nimmies. they are peugeot oem alloys and are 14" so win win

my dad got himself an old willis jeep from the korean war, that has no spedo, no fuel gage, no key, no power steering, no indicators but most fun of all, no seatbelts and no doors. nearly got thrown out the bloody thing when we went over a bump.
bloody fun though! makes you want to unbolt the doors off your pug lol
