Yeah, mines done the same! Will be cleaning it when my big thermofan comes and i have the front end off...


Here are a couple pics, iphone **** quality, of course. The wheels really didn't come out like i had planned, they're leaning towards a more Goldy side, rahter than the bronze i'd hoped. In saying that, i don't mind them! i'm going to run them for a few weeks, then see how it goes!

[dylan8]

Mine looked very milky from outside, and had to be polished to come off! so wasnt just 'fog'
I like it! rear looks good spaced out also. got a sample of what you were hoping for?

[drewr]

'was kind of hoping for this....



but hey, it's all good. I'm quite happy with this anyway! i'll give it a polish, see how it comes out!

Will just run this colour 'till i get my next set of wheels, i reckon!

Haha I know the feeling I got some porsche twists powder coated about 5 years ago at a mates place back home. And my mates where like no problem bronze right-like a wrx and I was like yeap.. needless to say Im still rocking the mustard gold metallic twists. They did a great job. I did paint all the lips black but I don't care for the black lips as it makes the tyre look bigger.

sorry for the Non MK4 pic

[drewr]

Haha! Wow, well, i can say at least my 'bronze' didn't come out Mustard! lol.

Still cool, in a different way! But, if i had as many wheels as you, i don't think i'd really care

[Mr. JLT]

Hey I collect wheels like women collect shoes=)

[drewr]

Come on, compare your 'shoe' collection pricing against your ladies. Something tells me, unless she's a Hollywood celebrity, you will outweigh her costs.

whore!

[dylan8]

Hey I collect wheels like women collect shoes=)

my gf doesnt seem to agree when i tell her that...

Just dont clean your wheels for a while and they'll be perfect!

Well iv got a long story.
My gf was was driving my bora through north sydney on November 24th when nice lady forgot to stop at the round about and hit the left front wheel,damaged the front left wheel, guard and passenger door. So car gets sent by insurance to get repaired.
Went to Scientific Auto Body they sent it to the DUMB F__KS at Barlow World! These pricks are useless...
They replaced the steering rack along with a few other bits. I get a call in january 22 saying the car is ready. Great imexcited. I go to get my bora and im shocked to see the clear finish looks like its been done with a roller the rear door wont lock the door handle part came out in my hand suspension had a heavy knock. Its
just bull****. Im angry so i leave it
Car gets sent to Barlow ****s they say its perfectly fine

[gringo_54_oval]

continues......
The shop gets the car back and sends it to Hessmans suspension,they find stabiliser bar brackets are on the wrong way around,shock bearing seems to be broken bumps stops broken and to top it off they lost the lock nuts and the wheel nuts addapter so all the wheels nuts have to be chiseled off.
The car got resprayed now it doesnt have a roller finish and the just HOPE the door handle doesnt fall off
So thanks bodgy Scientific Auto body and incompetent Barlow World for taking such a long time to get my car back 91 DAYS to be exact to replace a steering rack,replace a new guard and fit a second hand door, machine finish the left wheel (which looks like ****)after i was told its a new wheel.

picture this im sitting in my chair with my middle finger towards Scientific and Barlow **** YOO YOU USELESS MOTHER ****** none of you ***** will get no business from me again

ok i feel better now

[dylan8]

wow! Thats really bad dude. Did the insurance company have anything to say about the time and quality of work?

[gringo_54_oval]

Havnt said anything yet im going to ring nrma while im there. Stir some ****.
And thats if they ring me To say their not finished
