actin the maggot a while back and made shit of the wheel fixed now (by the way BC enginering in navan brilliant job) but the paint is fucked now on it best place i thinkin is tallaght powder coating but i dunno what colour it a white car and the whheels were gold looked really well but i thinkin it time for a change matt black anyone wow wish the car was that colour i loves it evil evil evil

There were two Lotus in the petrol station around the corner from me a few weeks ago, one of them was metallic black and the other Matt black, Matt Black looked savage and if they were in a showroom together there would be more matt black cars around, Matt black just looks evil but excellent

Im a big fan of matt black myself. Besides being evil, it just reminds me of a stealth fighter, flying low, under the radar and being one mean machine!

thanks lads i seen a cosworth in matt black last year in england and wow what a colour do ya think the wheels would look well done with the car bein white

I'd say they would look well, scoobywrx got black wheels on her white mr2 and they look great

Blackboard paint? then you can do your own murals with chalk - change them every week if you want

The rain would ruin your designs on it, the most imaginative ive seen is a van covered in Synthetic grass around the Naas area!

Yeah ive seen that van a few times. Needs a trim actually now that you mention it.

Dave, 300euro to refurb all your rims to new.....and pick a colour.......interesting...

Yeh if it does work out at that i think i'll get mine done aswell

You could borrow my advans when Glenner is done with them. Then drop yours in for make over.

well lads got there to ballymount[thanks swagger] yesterday 320 to take the wheel back to bare they turn it then just to take any scuff marks from the outside edge then powder coat them then i think 2 coats of lacqer it mad they can put 3 different colours on the same rim nice selection up there to choose from too was gonna matt them but i dunno if it will do anything for the wheels thinkin maybe bronze now decisions decisions

Any update on your wheels? I emailed them for a price and havent had a reply yet

not really i kinda stuck at min on colour i gettin a frind to come up this evening so he can sort out my pictures to put up i grabbed a colour chart from there and worst thing i ever done instead of one set colour there a load to choose from so look i will put them up so ya can see what mine looks like the wheels and other few bits look like but i will say one thing instead of buying a new set its mad the way a new colour with fresh paint does to a wheel u could own 3 years and wanting to get rid of well worth a inquiry

Fucking hell!! are you still alive after that big sentence, all in one breath or did you pass out and thats the reason the statement finished.

I was thinking the same thing! Kinda hard to make sense of it.

no still here probably shoulda used a few full stops ................

Good to hear, was worried for a while, then thought I scared you off, any chance of a few capitals letters as well.

Seriously though, we all like to help as much as we can on this site, and if you set out your posts in a clear manner it makes answering it so much faster and helps us not loose the day job

i hear ya thanks lads i just havent the fingers for the oul computer. Seriously THOUGH i know ya like your MK1 so i just thought i tell ya a sad story. A spa i know begged his uncle for years to sell him a 1986 gun metal supercharged tbar model garaged since 94 finally got it ,2 days later him, his brother and his friend down at the local cross doin rings they got chased took off round a bend lookin behind him and flipped the car across the ditch they were ok(dunno how)but there another one gone to the scrappers.Needless to say his uncle kicked the shit out of him.

Aw what a balls
Between that and the one dshamrock inquired about but was burnt out these MK1's are becoming endangered species

ya there not much left of it i dunno you mk 1 boys might be able to salvage something from it .Never even thought about askin him what he doin wit it ,it was a lovely example for the year his uncle is kicking himself for sellin it (when he finished kickin his nephew)

Theres a red on on carzone for sale down the cork area, Im heading to cork for the weekend and might see how far out of my way it is and drop in and see it, hmm, i reckon it looks like the supposidly burned out one from the dublin garage i enquired to, but im probably wrong

dsahamrock, you like sherlock holmes. Youve solved it!! Looks VERY similar. Enjoy Cork !! Hope its a good one in the flesh
