YAY 17's on the mk2, but question?

[WABIT]

ey carl a word of warning before you powdercoat them.......... make sure you sand the surfaces of those wheels, because they will stay rough once powdercoated, when i blasted my 17's i had to sand all those spokes!! i wanted to die!!

bit of an update on this one people, have been quietly and slowly been working on these wheels.
Chose to go for a slightly different look so I have modified them a little to suit the cars large flat surfaces.

The wheels after sand blasting....

then....

and....


At this stage they still need some more sanding and spraying to get the surface perfect. But am not in a rush.
