bmx1lew Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 As most of you know I purchased some new wheels after I managed to badly kurb one of my axis milanos. Any way the new wheels did not suit the car as much as i hoped, Actually the ratio on the pole was 63 liked my old wheels 7 liked my new lol . So I've had the centers painted and hopefully you guys will like them better . Let me know what you think, By the way the car is getting lowered on Friday so I will update it again then:eyebrows: Before After Also though I would Include a Pic of my new rad. I final put on that supra logoed metal plate I bought last summer Next job get some polished pipes to match the rad and some replace all the hoses to blue ones Lew. ***Edit I will be putting new chrome TRD center caps on aswell as thoes ones are buggerd so it should jazz them right up *** http://img.auctiva.com/imgdata/5/0/8/0/4/4/webimg/118736374_tp.jpg http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/TRD-Wheel-Center-Badge-MR2-Supra-Celica-Corolla-Yaris_W0QQitemZ250240435787QQihZ015QQcategoryZ14771QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hodge Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 So what did it cost you alltogether to strip paint and rebuild. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lbm Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 I agree the wheels look much more appealing. Good work Lew. You would set them off even more if your painted your calipers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
