Vikki,
Fair play to you girl, fantastic shine. Maybe you could do a list of products that you use etc on the detailing section of the fourm so people like me can get a shine that good
Mark.

hi all,
just wanted to show off my new wheels.
Went with the r90 replicas with falken ZE 912 205 45 17 tyres.
I had 15 inch runflats and the 17s non-runflats are much quieter and smoother. Major improvements in ride and control.

Thanks Ger.
I do love the r90s. I looked at several options and felt these suited best.
I'm actually on my way out now to tackle the rear speakers. Not looking forward to it to be honest.
I still have tinting to do & possibly bonnet stripes. I'll be looking at some performance mods after that.

17inch Replica JCW GP Wheels. I agonised for a long time after getting it over changing them for a set of 105's but didn't in the end...

very nice indeed.
echo MiniMpi - the wheels suit the car very well.
Just out of curiosity, where did you get them?

Thanks Guys, opinions are usually divided on them, people often dont like them at first but then they grow on them over time.
They came on the car eas so im not sure where the previous owner got them. Its an Ex UK car so they were bought over there anyway...
