    I'm sure Redflame that went on the North West photoshoot on Sunday had something similar to these on his car - looked pretty good to me.

    Can't really tell what they look like from a rolling shot - Redflame's wheels look like this

    Gentlemen, we can rebuild him. We have the technology....... Better than he was before. Better, stronger, faster.

    Wheels look ok but im not sure blue paintwork and black wheels goes too well together.  I have asked the seller if they have a photo of the BBS stamp on the back to show if they are really BBs, will see what they say

    Take it to a custom exhaust place and get them to weld a pipe instead of the cat, will be cheaper and not affect mot as diesels do not require a cat.

    I don't reckon those wheels on a navy car will look right IMO.

    Where does the black in Guinness go when you wee wee? I mean, how can something blacker than a black night with the consistency of used engine oil come out crystal clear within 20 minutes after 10 pints?

     hey, ive gone right off the wheels now, dont think he'll get what he wants for em, credit crunch an all that. Cat is fitted now and im £250 lighter!, fitted my flat aero baldes today and they look ok, not as big a difference in looks as i thought :(, still need to save up for remap, lowered springs, rear spoiler etc. Anyone used car evolution in Frinton for remapping, got a summer special £250!, phil
