I'm afraid it'll take you all of thirty minutes, including the wait between one layer and the other, so not much for a time-filling activity! :D
 
^ Yep, that's exactly what made me do it in the first place, if one day I'll want it racing red there's no problem: five minutes and £3 for the spray paint can. :)
 
So today I decided that yes, I need new wheels and I can't live one moment longer without them! :blink:

I was looking around and found these, and I just couldn't stop myself.
They'll be delivered either Tuesday or Wednesday. :love:

Here are the MOMO Thunder. :clap:

Thanks Clone! I really hope they will too. I have a very good feeling about them.

I'll obviously take a ton and a half of pictures after I put them on. ;) :D
 
^ Yessir I sure did! [B)]

7jx17", with a nice 35 Offset that should put them just about level with the side of the car. :D

No more need for spacers!!! :clap:
 
Well, I'm still waiting for my wheels, as there was a bit of a misunderstanding with the sales guys at Rimstyle, but we sorted it out and they should be delivered in the next ten or fifteen days.

*fingers crossed*

In the meantime I'm keeping myself busy with small but fun things, like painting some of the interior plastics:

And applying decals to the calipers:

And here's a picture from yesterday while I was waiting for the others to show up at the London Meet:

Nice car Marghe :D I do like the wing mirrors. They give the lines of the car a different look as they follow the angle of the A Pillar a bit better than the original ones. Bet you cant wait for you new wheels !!
 
Hey Steve! Sorry you weren't with us today. :)
I actually just like painting some bits black because I think the standard grey looks a bit cheap.

Thank you Boo (I think peeps call you like that here? If I'm not allowed and it's just for close friends just let me know. It's just that GreenGoddess is -so- long! :) ). I am particularly proud of my mirrors because I still haven't seen anyone else with them on their Ibizas.
I can't wait for my wheels all right! Those things are harder to get than a pink Galapagos Turtle. [:@]

Hey there, I remember seeing your car at the London meet and staring at the wing mirrors for ages, haven't seen many people change them and i think they look good for your car, good choice!

Also, that neon switch you mentioned, what's that for exactly, I couldn't see much about it, has bme intrigued

Thanks for the compliments on my mirrors. :D

The neon switch is for the red neon on top of the pedals, nothing overly fancy, just a touch of colour inside the car when I drive at night. ;)
Next time come and say hi and ask all you want to know! :)

Steve, hopefully next time we meet I'll give you the aerial. :)
