Aren't the RS's on in the picture? But they're 5 stud not 4 stud, but the rado is 4 stud ...

its sitting on the hub with 1 bolt hole lining up, he bolts it to that one and then lowers the car.....

Cheers, come over anytime Dom !

Yeah the RS are 5x100, 57.1 centre bore, i've put 1 bolt in which seems OK as they are a good fit on the bore, don't worry i won't be driving it like that, just wanted to see how the offset was and what they looked like, perfect fit.

I like it, what's the secret

[DUB 20V]

wow that looks way better what it the product used?

[OEM G60]

No big secret ! To get them to flash orange i ended up pin striping the indicator lenses like this


I used Red lens and bulb dye spray paint by a company called 'specialty'.
I didn't want to use this stuff cos it comes out of the can terribly, i found it helped to keep shaking it every 5 seconds but it still squirts out rather than spraying. The best stuff is made by Savage or Foiltech, but i can't find it anywhere in Australia, i ordered some from the UK but customs binned it as you need a liscense to import paint.

I experimented on one of them and found if you build up the layers (about 4-5 coats) you can sand it back with 1200 wet and dry until its flat again. The mistake i made last time i done it was not clear coating them, they faded back to orange in a year or so. This time i used an Enamel based clear coat on them, about 3-4 thin coats, then cut them back with 1500 wet and dry then T-Cut, then Polish.
