well, as some of you have seen on the FT.com site, i have been doing some work on my bargain alloys, to get them looking better than they were

so ive gave them a nice little refurb, and sprayed them graphite grey, this is my 1st ever refurb, so they wont be the best, but they will do,

so on with the pics,

the centercap has had one coat of laquer, so may look a lil different to the wheel, also it needs one more flat down and another coat as theres a few bits in the paint and some areas where theres only a little bit of paint.

just missing one center cap tho, as one of them broke

so im in need of one, (if anyone has got on spare pm me)

hope you like
