Matts pride & joy:

Cyrus Boots it!

[predator]

very nice! Even though its relatively easy to do, makes a big difference to the overall look of the car doesn't it?

hmmm..the hubs as well hey... /me runs outside and starts prepping car to do the hubs Nah, but maybe one day

cyrus: yours looks mad like that.. good choice of colour!

[mindflux]

.. didnt come out too bad .. i couldnt really get a good picture due to the fact that you guys kept booting (to the speed limit of course)

[MJ]

i love the pics you got of mine

was a good day, something to do better then being at home sleeping

[mindflux]

you realise you gave up spending the day sleeping in the bed you work up in.. to go play with your car.

your a true skyline loylist

[Ska]

HELL Yeah that was way better use of time than boring old sleep!

[Ska]

Yeah Joel that pic of mine you took looks Rad doesnt it! cant wait for the "action" shot of mine become viewable

That "action" shot of MJ's looks awesome!

What can i say, awesome outcome, money well spent, workmanship and value for money, AWESOME! Very proffessional finish and all I had to do were remove the tyres!

Thanks a lot for your time Joel, sorry we could only provide three, good luck next time, if anyone asks who did mine, I'll point them firmly in your direction!

[Nexus9]

Great day guys and thanks Joel/Spectrix

Enjoyable day, calipers look cool, I got mine done purple.

here are some pics.......

[Nexus9]

Close ups of Ska's "Hulk" stylee calipers and hubs.....

[mindflux]

wow Mj's really stands out in the pictur of you 2 leaving

Out of intrust nexus, what was your center bit (silver) like on your slotted rotors ? did it need painting did it?

[Spectrix]

The centre part is the hub facia- in 99% of cases I paint them as they're rusty or just look bad. On skylines they're usually black (at least they used to be black but have turned brown. ) On some theres also a horrible crusty bit right in the centre that I clean out and paint to prevent it from rusting any further. Some lines are in better shape than others.

Yeah theres a few good action shots that mindflux took from in my car.

I was having trouble uploading with optus FTP last night though, i'll try again tonight.

BTW, how come you guys always call me Joel? I don't mind really, but it's Joey :wavey:

[Ska]

Doh sorry Joey, I gotta learn to spell too, I swear it was joel, oh well one leter wawy isnt too bad

Still awesome work on mine, VERY happy with it, I want to drive past some buildings with reflective windows so I can see what it looks like going along, still very very happy with my gloworms

[twoquik]

yeah love yours ska looks sweet

[Ska]

Close ups of Ska's "Hulk" stylee calipers and hubs.....

Thanks heap Nex for posting those, as everyone can see now before, during and after the whole transformation, if anyone wants a truely proffessional job done and couldn't be bothered doing it themselfs, Joey is definatly your man!

[Nexus9]

Yeah but now I need new wheels so you can see the calipers better

oh and Joey is the bomb...... people if you want a professional factory type job done then Joey is your man.

[Spectrix]

Factory? Hey! I'm not taking any lessons of the factory, they have no idea what they're doing.

Special thanks to you for the use of the carpark too mate.

Here are some more pictrues:

Cyrus's glow worms:

Matts pride & joy:

Nexus I agree you need more open wheels to show off your calipers:

Cyrus Boots it!

Last but not least...

[Ska]

FILTH! AWESOME! Yeah once again re-iterating that I LOVE this colour!

[Spectrix]

Hahah, yeah you need sunnies on to look straight at it.

I'll call it glow worm green. I wonder if the other skyline boys will try to eat your calipers?!
