Default Refurbed STI Wheels

I recently purchased a set of STI alloys to be able to do the brembo brake upgrade.

The wheels I sourced were straight but had started to bubble and flake where the balancing weights were located.

I could of just had the gold finish touched up but I felt like going black on black so sourced a local refurbishment company.

I dropped off the wheels with a set of new tyres for them to fit and balance, which took a week to do and i must say I am over the moon with the finish!

Big thanks to http://www.wheelrefurbishing.co.uk/ based in Flaunden Hertfordshire for service and finish they got on the wheels!

Next up brakes!

Thanks everyone!

I know this isn't the most thrilling of posts but since picking her up in December its been mainly servicing and maintenance up to this point with a few tidying up jobs and the obligatory de-tango and black lense mod. Managed to put off the hella horns up until now but not sure how long I can hold out...

The roof rail delete would be desirable but in researching old threads, it seems very difficult to locate the exact trim and brackets that are still available to carry this out! Wouldn't want to get halfway though and realise I was missing something!

Brembos will be next point of business and ride height, then whether to keep it as a prodrive map or swap out the smokey td04 for more ponies! Seeing Rich at FB tunings wife's 2.1 stroker 6 speed wagon was inspiring and he suggested a billet turbo with supporting mods and map which all sounds very fun and expensive!
