Just thought i would share some pics of my wheels and there colour change. They were done by PPE in Edinburgh and i would highly recomend them to anyone.

Here is a pic of my wheels before they were done. This pic was taken on the last run organised by KMM, Was a great day out mate cheers.



Here is a pic of them finished off



Close up



And finally a real close up as they have Silver throw them, This was the first car to have this finish put on them and iam so happy i went for it.




I have more things in the pipe line for the car and some of its been done. All those on the last run would know i have had a custome exhaust made from the heads back for the car. But i now have a 85mm fast road and track throttle body fitted 2 the car with a fast air intake.

Iam working on the suspension just now with new anti roll bars and some poly bushing, While my spare cylinder heads are away getting gas flowed and new valves fitted before i fit them with a bigger cam and a remap.

The wheels look good. Black rims on a siver car go well. Your doing a fair bit of work to your car.

When are you arranging another Edinburgh run? That's almost been a year!!

Sorry, Off-topic, but Rambo, are you in Aberdeen?
Because upon seeing your profile I saw you have a Lotus Elan... I saw one in Aberdeen 2-3 weeks ago, could it have been you?
