Ask your bro if you can pinch his wheels for the winter :)
You cant beat a set of BBS RX2's though, I really do think they are the best suited wheels for the car, especially in 16"

Civic is going well thanks mate, it’s taken me a few months to adjust to the lack of refinement but the extra power is certainly fun.
Got quite a few plans for it next year but the tuning & styling parts for Honda's are horrendously priced.

I have fitted a Tegiwa carbon induction kit, Supersprint 2.5" SS centre section and a Spoon N1 backbox and all that has set me back nearly a grand :( crazy!

You guessed right Verity 8) Something a bit different :D

Im going to be spending Saturday morning doing it :D

When it's installed, i've read if you spray a clear gloss coat over it, it makes it shiny 8)

Yeah that should look pretty cool. You will need to key it slightly and give it a good clean....

Other than that it should look cool....

You will need to ruff it up but not to put scratches/blemishes in it.

If your going to aerosol it I would dust coat it aswell then hit it with a wet coat....

Thanks mate :D

I prefer the colour coded splitter, so without getting it resprayed thought this would be a good equivalent 8)

Pictures to come tomorrow afternoon!

Did my red carbon splitter yesterday :D Very chuffed with the results :)

Applied it slightly different this time, instead of having 3 bits and joining them carefully, I did one long bit and it worked alot better 8)
