#1: Wondering if Author: alanamh PostPosted: 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 PostPosted: 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 Smile

well you obviously don't think it looks fine because you're asking for advice on how to make it look better Confused

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/London PostPosted: 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

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

I got some 14 inch OEM alloys with 4 brand new tyres if you want them for £250?

Id deffinatly save up and buy some alloys, you can get them cheap if you look long enough.

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 Very Happy
