Well on a fine comb inspection last night i noticed that the mags have been scratched when going on. Basically the rattle gun has worn away paint of some rims in the nut chamber. Off to the tire shop today, see what they propose to do. I didnt buy brand new mags to have paint missing from a simple careless job!

thats something thats almost unavoidable....in all reality it'll happen eventually even if you use a tyre brace and do it by hand....I wouldn't be overly concerned about it and I'd think the tyre shop will say the same thing, its near impossible to stop that happening!

^^^^^ Me too... I'd be pissed! People don't take care anymore huh? I have a white leather steering wheel in my R32 (Yea yea, I know, we've got to make mistakes to learn from them though) I took it to a mechanic in Townsville, came back with greasy black prints all over it! Grrrrr.....

What did the shop say they'll do for you??

i jus bought a new set of rims from the koya new catalogue....was tossing up between ur style ones and the ones i ended up gettin...i have a silver S2 33 so went for the similar look....

ill post some pics up if u and anyone else wants me to...let me know!

I just shat my pants,

very nice (best Borat impersonation)

Looks awesome mate, but definitely needs to be lowered just a little bit to make it look complete...

either that or some sideskits and rear bar

*BEWARE OF GUTTERS*

man do they make the stock rotors look tiny...

Cheers dude, Im very happy with the look its achieved :D

Yeh im planning on some nismo skirts and probably a rear bar like yours, or an Impul item.

Other then that the looks department is nearly completed!

Yeh brakes look lame now but :)

Thanks for your input Yo Yo!

nismo side skirts and matching rear bar (like mine) will look sweet.

Impul kit flares out a bit more so I don't think it will flow with the stock frontbar

Just paint your brake calipers like I did lol! I was gonna do them in brembo gold but the supercheat auto only had the anodised red left at the time.

This is why when ever i've bought new rims i got the tyre shop to fit the tyres and balance them, then i take them home and fit them myself carefully with a torque wrench like they should have been done in the first place ! Then i return and get the alignment done.

I also don't like rattle guns anywhere near my blue anodised Rays wheels nuts.

Nice rims dude, :) i've got 19" Koya Race teks with black centres and polished lip on my 32. ;)
