Going to get my Bullets sprayed matt black, hope it will look good?!

Does anyone have a spare set I can put the car on for one week. I wont drive the car anywhere as I will be using the van that week, just dont fancy leavin it on axel stands for that period of time!

In mids area, around Leicestershire would be great.

Thanks in advance, I could collect, drop off and wont drive on them.

Why don't you just put the car on blocks then if you aren't going to use it?

Hi Matt, guess what - I have a choice of spare sets.

The 15" 7 pots you can keep - or a set of 16" 7 spokes (can't remember the name) you can borrow.

Jot me a line asap.

This is exactly what i've been wanting to do for a while now and have even been keeping an eye out on ebay for even 1 wheel to swap out and get them done 1 at a time. Have seen bullets before in black and want mine done as I think it'll be better against the DS.
The place where I was going to get them done say I can leave the car in but it would take 4 days and i'm struggling to find the nerve to let them have it. You could maybe ask them to do the same??

R99 · Apr 14th, 2008, 06:36 PM

hoojkel, those alloys I posted for £40 would do the job for you. They come with tyres too if you still need to use your car.

They are not mine I'm trying to sell, but just think that for £40 they are a bargain for anyone needing an emergency set of alloys / tyres. You never know when you might need them.

hoojkel · Apr 14th, 2008, 07:30 PM

Thanks for that James, going to have a look now for them

No problems mate.

My brother has a set of 15" rockets that we keep in the garage just in case of any disasters....
