[aido]

I do like that new front grille, those gold lights look black again :)

[JOHNNY-BOY]

Looking good pal :)

[norkep]

Looking Good there young Sir. There are some good backgorund shots there as well mate

[aido]

Cheers fellas, I was going for the arty look to figure out if I've got any future as a Page 3 photographer :D

[norkep]

Aido - If you do, just remember - Look But Don't Touch. But like me - you've got big hands and that would be a waste of hands ;)

[johnboy]

[Mr Morse]

Car's looking a lot cleaner there fella!

Nice location too :)

[jasper]

Lookin sw@nky :)

wont let me write it normal 's****y' (could be misread)

[Gord]

Looking very clean :D for a change keep up the good work :winky:

[waddy]

You got to it before I did - I was gonna turn up on your doorstep with a bucket and sponge and give you a lesson in washing cars !! :winky:

Shots look good though. I'd like to do some night ones with you at some point - the effect of the granite paint against a dark sky will be very good.

[The Editor]

Looking good Aido, but I'm racking me brains (not that I've got much ) trying to figure out where you took the pics... Rutland Water? Somewhere In Nottingham?? I'm over in Grantham but I can't place it.

Put a old git out of his misery - Where is it??

Looking good pal. Love those wheels :D

[StainlessSteelRat]

That does look good mate. I have a granite sky as well, so I think I'm gonna have to get some wheels like yours. (And the dual exhaust pipes :-) )

Not far off pal, Carsington reservoir in Derbyshire :)

They do mate, I've spent days getting to as they are now, they need repolishing and refurbing as the spokes are corroding a bit, I've spoken to some local places and one has quoted £35 a rim just for the polishing, might try and just get that done for now and then save up for next year to get them fully redone after winter :D

I'm guessing your dad's place would be a lot more expensive?

As for why guys, I kind of lost interest in the car thanks to a certain lady 'friend' who hated it, she's gone now so the car is back to #1 priority :D Just wish I'd spent the money on the car instead of her

Cheers for the comments guys!

[vinokirk]

absolutely gorgeous aido, the lip and the exhausts....bellisimo!!!

Cheers buddy, that front needs respraying, it's going down to the primer, that's what all the white dots on the bumper and light washers are!!

Reminds me I need to call the dealer!

[Mr Singh]

There 2pc, so generally there more money to refirb...

I would strip them, get the centers painted by local paintshop..... granite sky perhaps? then polish the lips myself with a wheel polishing mop. You could polish those to a mirror shine in less than 1hour per rim, probably quicker if there are no major scratchs and just oxidation.

[aido]

Wheel polishing mop? I'm interested mate, what does that involve?

what do you use to clean yours? They oxidise within 24 hours as they are now!

The place I spoke to didn't want to split them mate, thought the Blitz rims were 3 piece anyway?

Was thinking of anthracite / granite again, I like the way they look now so will probably stick to the same colour :D

[Bazza]

nice garden

grass needs a cut though
