shit pics but great results

refurbed myself with a dremmel (fickin luv that thing!!) and spent a couple of hours and a couple of quid to get some spanky new msprt reps

havnt done the caps yet coz i ran out of paint typical ono

looking sweet,

i`m after a dremmel where did you get yours mate?

at the local b n q type place. got it for a score with a few little bits and bobs. but thet are absolutly brill!!! so many things i can do now without any stress at all, just need to find some things to do. (like i dont have a list 5 meters long! )

Looking very tasty mate

very very very nice mate

it's dark grey right?
all I can say is they look da bomb

Looks like Anthracite. Done a good job there mate

Nice one bruvs-means you can get rid of the 'pina wrongness

looking cool there mate!!!

think i'll get a set after all and do them like that

they look a bit nice

was going to do mine that colour, anthracite looks lovely with a silver rim

cheers lads

i havnt a clue what colour it is i just looked for one that seemed right if u know what i mean , and yeah, i took the pics in the basement at 11 o clock at night so it was a bit dark down there

just to do the caps up ant then ill show Ԛ´em off nicely

Have you just sprayed the rim silver?

Very smart

Wonder if you can get the wheel paint from BMW for the Motorsport wheel centres, seeing as you can get silver paint.......anyone know?

nah mate ,

two toned Ԛ´em, and clear lacqured them after

So what did you use for the rest of the rim (as in - how did you get out the kerbing?)

Q

i was lucky fella , no serious dinks, just a light breathing of a kerb here and there. used a dremmel to polish it all out. now they are spanky

The BMW motorsport rims are normally painted nogaro (sp?) silver on the inner bits like johnono has done. Your local $tealer should be able to relieve you of your hard earned $. Or get Halfrauds or the like to mix some up for you.

I can see a little johnono foot

They look lush mate.

Was thinking about spraying my wheels grey.





How good do you reckon i could get the kurbing out with a dremmel?

Adam

they dont look too bad fella, only a little worse than mine were, just get in there with a barrel sander (the little tube type sander rolls) and smooth it out all the way round.

i spent a good few hours going over and over and over them again, until they were minty again

johnono,

Looks very nice that mate!.

Motorsport Touring!.

Your a fraud!.

Cheers Gareth

very nice work lad, what a stunning touring, looks fab with fresh paint on wheels, how did you do the job so neat, thinking of doing mine now, please tell me!!

nice one geeza!

tbh, it looks good because the lips are scrape free. if they were dinked up then it might not look as good. i did the rim lips with a dremmel (top bit of kit!!) then sanded with paper all the outer facets, masked up the rim, wiped the rim down with spirt, primed with the red primer so i could see what id done.

i silvered the whole wheel. then when dry masked the rim so it was nicely covered and then did the centers in the grey. when i peeled off the mask i had a beautiful line all round. so i caked it with clear lacquer to seal it.

jobsa goodun

Looks absolute mint mate, really suits!

stock 15in BBS all the way!!!! they rule!! the only wheel for the e30 in my opinion!!!

I 2nd that Karan, i am waiting for some cash to come my way and i will be looking at getting mine done and have the rim polished with the black face and slap some Koni's on for good measure (e30 drift car is born)

can you take a pic of the dremel bits you used mate? cheers

They looks awesome... you wanna come do my 16's the same?!

funnily enough mine are in now for refurb........went for gold spokes with diamond cut/polished rim.....was gonna get em done in a chrome typr finish but well see what they look like

bob s, no probs fella, sort it tomoz

jhonno fella, would if i could geez

Look spot on mate,but i would really recomend having them rebalanced with stick on weights on the inside,for one looks so much better and also when the weights are knocked on they tend to break the paint and will eventually cause water to get in there and start to bubble the paint.Other than that great job!
