A fifth replacement wheel is being sent to me to replace the stress cracked wheel I have (its a long long story) then all four of the decent wheels are being refurbed but not at my expensive
So I have a oppotunity to change the finish when they are refurbed.
At the moment they are like this:-

or do I do them like a large version of the original Monte wheel

Or something else?? My car is mallard Green BTW

Paul this place http://www.ianjemison.co.uk/contact.htm
I'm thinking of the original style because 1. silver is easier clean and 2. the original idea for having these wheels in 18" was to have a pumped up Monte on steriods. Fozy has already done this on his but I'd have the decals smaller and minus the ford badges and have them lacqued after like the originals aswell

The jury is still out on the twin headlights for now I'm going to buy a brand new pair from Ford in the new year as mine are dull and pitted and see how I get on with them. Deffo standard rear lights. I had considered the tear drop door mirrors originally but the standards have grown on me and are staying as they are
