PIcs are not working for me

Looks great, the black wheels really suit the car

Looks great. Can you please tell me where you got the black side markers from. Been looking around but can only find M6 versions and I have the same car as you. Thanks

Mikester30 · 10-20-2016, 12:48 AM

Yeah I couldnt find them either so I decided to paint them myself, they come off very easy then just used plastic primer followed by 2 coats of high gloss black paint, then a couple coats of lacquer, very happy with the result

Cool. Thanks for the response, may have to give it a go.

Forgot to say the chrome bit pops away from the black plastic bit very easily so you dont have to mask anything which makes it easier

Thanks for thd advice mate, much appreciated.

Looks really smart, the black definitely suits it. Are you lowered and running spacers?

Mikester30 · 10-20-2016, 01:20 PM

Thanks mate, yeah have H&R springs on and 15mm spacers in the back

TomF32 · 10-20-2016, 05:49 PM

Car looks brilliant!

I've pretty much same set up except have standard alloys. Nice to see yours with black as I'm tempted to go for it as they could be doing with a refurb anyway!

Location...? Donegal/WestCoast somewhere?

Yeah im happy I did the wheels now, choose gloss black and I think it really suits the grey.
