No doubt just need the fine cut. Depending on the pitting etc.

Meguirs Metal Polish on the lips Baz, and get some pics up so I can see how dirty they are.

You can use this too.

Yep, that should cover it Baz.

[ImysE30]

You buying him clothes now too

He's already been helping me out Baz, i think he's addicted to split wheels

[mabz]

i used a bit of shiny sinks kitchen cleaner on mine and they came out a treat.i normally use autosol tho

[leeparkes]

Baz this is the best stuff ive found, shines them up like a mirror and it has anti corrosive stuff in it so it lasts too, ive yet to find a better polish (and ive tried a few)

Megs FTW

[Rav335uk]

[Baz666]

i`m going to have to sort out some dish`es first.

i`ll tell you what tho this Meguiars metal polysh is the nuts

[Rav335uk]

Meguirs is the best i've used so far too.
Mine will be ready in 2 weeks, need to split the 003's and get them of to be chrome powder coated

[ImysE30]

No pics as i can't find my bluetooth CD

Rims are gone now

On to bigger and better wheels

[Baz666]

Imys have you got a set bbs`s if not which ones you going for.

[ImysE30]

I'm wheeless now

Might get some 8 & 9J RS's in 5x120 when funds allow

[Baz666]

what in 17`s rear archs will need work surelly if you go 9j, one of the reasons why i got rid of the borbets and they were 16`s.

my next big spend will be on coilovers quite fancy them rpm ones

[ImysE30]

Yeah arch work will definitely need to be done but if i buy what i want then the arches will be big/wide enough anyway

Coilovers would be nice, air ride even better
