Cheers, should be pampered soon when the weather picks up.

Matte Black is the choice

Has taken loads of messing with different colour combo tests, was like redecorating a room haha - gone from the silver centres to the coloured aswel, reckon looks better.

Stop teasing and get some more pics up.

Only two finished before the weather went shocking - need good light so the matte finish actually can be seen.

The matt finish looks so nice mate. Looks to have gone on really well. How did you do the Porsche centre caps? The outer edge of the badge marrying to the matt black looks immense! Will they be lacquered for durability/stop markings etc or will they be staying matt?

So good Look forward to more updates with lots of pics

Hi James, I used P1200 sand paper on the centres and then painted them.

I won't be lacquering the wheels as I want to keep them as matt as possible, looking into matt paint protection for them.

Funny thing is I changed the colour to sell them as I had timewasters when they were silver, but im in two minds whether to keep or do the OEMs matt now.

Only time will tell

What colour are you LCR wheels mate. They painted or powdercoated??

LCR wheels are currently painted Citreon Meteor grey, but need a good refurb as they were thrown on for the winter.

Very nice colour choice. Only thing I will say about matt paint is they get dirty so quickly and are a pig to clean. My mates skyline is painted satin black and everything shows I.e. finger marks etc. we are there for ages to try and make it look clean

They are filthy just sitting in the living room! Got some tips and pointers from detailing world so they're may be hope

 

[drka-drka]

Sexy!

 

[tyrer]

Well as with most things everything has a price, Porsche rims are going to a new home. Good mate made me a great offer.

Really falling out of love, I can feel a B5 S4 calling me

 

[drka-drka]

Aww u suck, but fair play if I got a decent offer I'd sell up too.

S4 mmmmm lovely

 

[EL]

As much as I'd like to say nooooooooo I know I'd do the same. Good luck with whatever decision you make dude with the car. S4 is a monster of a car!
