    Well no more need for Fez to photoshop my wheels gold. They're done and finally fitted to the bike. Excuse the state of my lawn and borders. I ronnied my shoulder at the end of last year and didn't get a chance to clear it all out before winter set in :D

    Looking good Rich. Not quite as good as Fez can do 'em but pretty good all the same.

    Si, I must have hit paydirt with this one because she hasn't even mentioned the garden and was cooing over the new wheels.

    Na going with much the same as you have there Rich. It's the SP's wheels that are getting done to get rid of the horrid polished rims.

    Powder coat mate. It's a bit better wearing. Though the top lacquer will have a metallic in it to make it shine a little.

    Do you put any wheel wax on yours? If so have you got any recommendations? Preferably something I can pick up from Halfrauds tomorrow.
