New Wheels, calipers and Mooses

[cameron]

A huge thank you to T5pete :D

I went to his house this morning to fetch my new Wheels, Dark Anthracite Titans :D

Now me saying they look the dogs danglies is an understatement, they are immaculate, with good tyres as well.

So anyway we got there, me and the young 'un and all was well, changed the wheels over no probs at all, had a drink and a chat, had a look at his very nice 240 and his Volvo junk yard :D

Set off home and got about 2 miles when i felt a vibration :mad:

Some D*ck head, namely me hadnt tightened the bolts on the drivers side wheel properly, so i stopped and checked the nuts out, one had sheared off.

Went straight back to petes and luckily i got some mole grips on it and it come out and pete give me a replacement :D

Put it all back together and guess what happened, ( i knew i shouldnt of had the spinach this morning ) I broke another wheel bolt putting the wheel back on :mad111:

So it all come back off and pete give me another wheel bolt :)

Since then everything has been A OK!

Got home and washed her put the Mooses on and painted the calipers Yellow.

Now before the flat cap brigade kick off about the yellow paint, it was a gift, it saved me £22 and it looks the ££££££££.

Here are a couple of piccys for your viewing pleasure, comment are welcome, good or bad, im not really bothered as i think it looks the biz :B_thumb:

Like the wheels mate.
Yellow calipers look alright on a silver car.

[cameron]

Yeah cheers matey :)

It still has to settle yet so a drop of maybe another 30 - 40mm on the front, so it will look really good once it is at its proper height, not such a big gap between the tyre and arch.

[Tomcat]

About time too!!,lol. Looks very,very nice Lee, loving the Yellow calipers, might even steal the idea for mine as I couldn't decide what colour to do them.

[cameron]

My dog does have serious problems

[AlanG]

As long as he does as you tell him and not visa-versa I reckon you'll be ok. Does he have an ASBO yet??

appart from the peeing thing hes a brilliant dog and extreamly inteligant its just that he likes to leave his mark every where and on every thing.

[AlanG]

Odd,that. He doesn't look German.......
