yes diamond cut and lacquered. Any full face/ spoke less wheel (ronal turbo, cav slab -like) looks good polished/or diamond turned in my opinion..
My mate ben and rysmee off here (his white GTE is in features section) both did theyre cav slabs like this ages ago ; first saw the idea on those cars.

Ah right, your just going tomorrow then.
What issues? Nowt major i hope?
-
well, the battery has been going flat this weekend, and it ran from cold quite mis-firey but should still be ok,..
But no, issues are mainly non-car related tbh mate.
-

UPDATE.
Ive been finding it tricky to explain how ive been feeling/do with feel with the car right now. Also, how to write this overdue update.
Ive manage to edit it down a fair bit and its still an essay lol.
To catch up, basically since last update: Billing, Edition 38, Trax shows and PNG Midlandz meets have been the highlights with the car this year. Ive enjoyed bombing about at weekends and on days off work during the summer too.
Because of its quirks/unfinished bits - a fair bit of the time ive been more glad to get to my destrination than the journey tho lol.
It looks a lot better than it is to drive lol. As ive said to any who have asked.
I have had my much needed a bit of a chill with the car since getting it roadworthy. Financially and personally..

So, anyway, onto the good bit now. We should have some funds to play with now. Finish ‘stage 1’ first.
Parts I have acquired during the summer, since last update..

9 inch front coilover springs from merlin motorsport (picturednext to what size are on the car).. then no pics but some stubby short poly bumpstops and Rear top mount poly bushes, thanks mike..
All purchased back in July lol. So since July ive not bought a thing..
Anywho.. to this, I hope to add Compbrake rose-jointed track rod ends. On the way soon. While theyre being fitted the front suspension will get stripped and the smaller poly-bumpstops and shorter coilover springs will go on and im hoping it will give the shocks more room for travel and improve the ride quality.
Then finally I can get the front suspension set up/aligned if all the above goes smoothly. Front strut brace ive had for ages will be fitted then too..
At the back, mikes rear top shock poly bushes will go on, then the rear strut brace ive had for even longer can be fitted lol..
Externally, I need to either buy a new complete exhaust system or try to finish the magnex backbox I have with a rest of the system.. I know theyve shut up shop but magnex’s still show up on ebay/colin every now n then so we’ll see.
Then the failed/incomplete single wiper kit I have, again; either buy in the bits to complete what it or go and buy a whole new kit (not new, used- cheap)
All the above, along with a 52mm gauge of some sort and x2 mk1 centre dash air vents will complete ‘stage1’ as ide planned it. The only thing ive actually done that wasn’t planned in stage 1 was the mk1 dash and flocking I did earlier in the summer.

absolutely love the wheels. really nice subtle car, keep up the good work mate.
