Burny Posted July 25, 2012 Author Share Posted July 25, 2012 Im due a lil update i think :-) So here goes....Firstly a picture of me driving her home on the M6Whilst mappingUnderneath looking freshDynograph I picked her up last Wednesday and straight away booked her into the bodyshop, the paint has gone dull from where shes been neglected for 9 months lol ive also gone off the black trim so want to enjoy the rest of the summer with it looking all fresh and white :-)I then ran into a few little problems...My 15" Rays TE37's werent even close to fitting, they would have litterally needed to be on the final thread to fit lol so i rang Mike at TD and ordered some hubcentric spacers with studs, i then thought to myself this is going to look stupis with wheels pointing out 25/30mm outside the arch so gave another job to the bodyshop - rolling my front arches. Im hoping to use normal spacers on the rear to try bring it out tto math the front as i dont want to be rolling the rears and buying more spacers, the hubcentric ones arent cheap.. plus the cost of rolling arches then resprayng lolI also ordered some black Rays stickers as i think they will look nice with the carbon bonnet and black peice which is being resprayed between the side windows, tried fitting them over the blue ones and they didnt fit perfectly (too small)... turned out someone on ebay was selling fakes and my blue ones are laquered on so ideally i need a perfect match to stick over the top!However... I'm now on the lookout for black stickers and the spacers have been ordered and she's in the bodyshop so all coming on slowly but surely See how close they are to fitting!Heres a pic of her from earlier on today at the bodyshopI should be picking her up Friday afternoon, i cant wait to have her all white i think itl look so much nicer, just a shame ive got to wait to fit the wheels!Thanks for looking :-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
