I think they look cool! 100 times better than those god-awful hub caps. Shame it's got a 4x4 stance now though!

Pics to follow.

do not paint the drums i just had to buy white spirit, a wire brush and some wet and dry to get the crap off that the previous owner put on mine.

That car looks really nice but its crying out 4 a GSi spoiler

I'm not doing bright red drums or anything. I just want to put hammerite on them or something to take away the cool rust.

One of the wheels needs a refurb. I didn't picture it though
