I like mate. Black would look nicer but is a good job. After recently laquering a willy wheel and turning it matt black I know how hard it is to get right :)

the willy's got sold, should be picking them up this week

if anything changes i will inform everyone.

cheers for the comments people, i would maybe choose a different colour next time but i quite like this colour, am debating polishing th rim as it is a little curbed but not really noticable in this colour
