thanks mate! cant decide if I'm gonna paint the wheels antracite or keep them white. think antracite gives them a more meaner look but I'm super happy with them in white. What do you guys think???? To give you an idea:

If the car is ready I'm going no doubt. Taking your escos with you i presume? would be fun to go with someone else from norway. lots of people that wants thoose wheels.question is are they willing to spend that much money worth every penny in my book

Coming on very well - I love those wing mirrors. Where did you get them from? I've never seem them on an EsCos apart from the Grp A rally cars. I think the wheels would look great anthracite, but I'm sure you've got more important work to be finishing on the car first.

Your quite right about that!!! I got them from a guy in Finland. He also provided the rear wing and grill. Top finish quality on the carbon.
