Of the 3 I like the middle wheel the best. The the one one the left. The one with the star and the chrome bits in the wheel, blah. But then again, you didn't ask me and I'm no paying for them, so I don't have much say in the matter.
No. I welcome input. The star and chrome would be powder coated or shaved off. I'm leaning toward the middle one as well. I really like the 'lipless' look.
:cornut: Yeah middle one looks great. You are going to have one NICE MINI when all is said and done. I can't weight for those photos. Jason
Love the thread. My only suggestion on the wheels........make sure the spokes do not extend out past the lip of the wheel. Otherwise the spokes will get crazy rock-chipped.
Or lay them face down, i did that to one of my pf-01s by accident and it got an admittedly tiny scratch but hard to forgive myself given how much effort i expend to keep the wheels looking nice..... even though they are my track wheels and get mountains of dust every event hahahaha at least i admit i am nuts
Thanks for the heads up on the wheels. Worst case I can just re-powder coat them every year before the Dragon Here is the hood, and the shaved bumpers.
Wheels I'm going out of my mind obsessing over wheels. Can anyone identify this one? I like 5 spoke, but am looking at others. This is the 'perfect' wheel to me, but only 5 bolt: :mad2:
New wheels have been purchased (will be powder coated matte black). Chad is now disassembling for reassembly. Cleaning and making final adjustments. I have to say that the attention to detail that Detroit Tuned (aka Chad) has done with this project have been absolutely insane. The tiny steering wheel control buttons got masked off, I didnt even do this when I painted them! Washers and bolts match color. Each screw feels like its been thought about. (get your mind out of the gutter) A lot of progress is being made, and I could not be happier. The interior looks briliant!
Houston we have doors! Comparison of the old Focal F05 rims to the new DxRs: I'm really excited to see them on the car, I like the spokes so much better! Chad has been busy this weekend, we have doors again! Gobs more photos with todays post: http://www.blueminicooper.com/ :yesnod::yesnod::yesnod:
