s1fu Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 Dam nice job. The before and after shots speak for themselves. Out of curiosity, What did you use to get it so clean? Just elbow grease and a rag or was it some sort of degreaser / cleaner? Quote
Hair Posted April 27, 2012 Posted April 27, 2012 Never seen BBS RA's on a starlet before, if they are RA's they look sexy! Looks incredible after the clean dude!Keep up the good work!Jack. Quote

jamesgray Posted February 16, 2014 Author Posted February 16, 2014 Unfortunately me and the little starlet had an accident...It all happened at 6.10am on my way to work...Spun out on the expressway and rear ended the barrier at 70mph...The car is obviously a write off...The car will be added to the breaking section so if anybody needs any parts give me a shout...I live on Anglesey, North Wales...Below are a few pics of the damage...
