Got my spiders refurbed and had the option of changing them to anthracite.

I think it has really improved its looks smile

I preferred the aerial at the back of the car.

i rather like these Anthracite Spiders. usually work really well with darker colours (Reflex Charcoal, blacks etc) IMO, but i'm sure it they must look great with Cascade Copper! 'tis a colour and a half that indeed! smokin

It's no aerial. It's a newly designed telescopic postionally variable engine air intake in case the floods happen again in Sheffield. Only available in green !.biglaughbiglaugh

Hi Im not so sure it's improved the looks but it hasn't done it any harm. And you wont need to clean them so often now!!

I really do prefer the silver, they stand, shine and look so much better (all imho) but yes, thats a big plus to be had. Cleaning the silver ones was a nightmare, took ages, as they were always covered in brake dust.

Does look meaner with the darker wheels, did they do a good job on the wheels?

Colin / Dave @ Automedon got them done for me as I had scruffed up the Silver ones - and I needed four new tyres frown.

It was £80 for the four I think - and I can't complain at all about the finish smile

Hi Phil,

Lovely looking Tuscan

On your profile was that taken at Drivestyle Hornbeam Park. Love the wheels and have the same problem of scuffed silver ones could you IM me the contact £80 does sound incredibly good value, best I have been quoted is £30 per wheel.

It was indeed taken outside HHC - or now Drivestyle - as thats where I got it from - as you may guess as soon as I saw her I wasn't leaving without buying smile
