Saw this on Ebay and remembered there's been a few scuffed rim stories and thought of you...........n me too........lol
They seem to make them for various makes......Chrysler, Ford, Citroen etc etc, but dont see any Jaguar?
Anyways, don't really know if I'd have the time or the patience......probably a wheel refurbishment establishment for me.

Ive been refurbing my wheels for the last 6 months (ready for Harewood on Sun) and will post a step by step as to how I did them on Sat night if I finish by then.
Total cost I reckonto do5 is £35.

 

Yeah do that Buck, with pics too.....also lets know what products were used.....should prove very useful

JC

 

Geesh...6 months! Slow and steady wins the race, but you can't get no where if you're standing still!

 

Lol...........everybodys different Biggie
Me? I'm a sorta do it now guy. What you mean its twice the price? Ahhh F**k it............just do it....lol
Thats why I have no money

I bought a knackered alloy from a Jag spares day last Oct and have been refurbing them one at a time in my garage as and when I could be bothered.So I always had 4 alloys on the car , a space saver spare in the boot and an alloy in the garage getting refurbed.As each wheel gets refurbed I also painted the caliper red with heat resistant red paint (for engine manifolds) and a couple of coats of lacquer to bring out the shine.

 

Nice!
Not like you NOT to post pics Buck....lol

Yeah true dat jimmy! Hey what does the whole lang may yer lum reek mean?

 

I was going to ask the same question, but I researched instead. Very literal translation. "Long May Your Chimney Smoke"

 

I was going to research but you know how us Americans are...I'm too lazy right now to do that!

 

Hear you on that one! I have nothing but time right now though, because of the fact that I'm working and everyone else is sleeping!

 

WTF! Why are you working...do think you really need security when everyone is just having fun!?

 

The thing is that someone has to be here just in case there is an emergency and the gates need to be opened for ambulances or fire trucks or POS's(I mean cops). HAHA! No offense smidge!

 

I'm impressed Biggie me ole mate.......nice one.
That is the literal translation, but its kinda like a scottish version of Mr Spock......." Live long and prosper"

JC

 

Hey watch that there biggie! Everyone still has a job to do whether or not the party is starting! At least your getting paid better than a regular day! Time and a 1/2 right?

 

Jeez.........you're kiddin me right?
A national holiday should be triple time and a day in leiu.........std over here!

JC

 

Are you serious Jimmy? That would be freaking awesome! I've never heard of such a thing!

 

sometimes here they dont even pay time and half on holidays[:@]

 

All depends 04.......on who you work for and the type of holiday and amount of cover required.
I have had in past employments double time and a day in leui.........and also once or twice the triple time and a day in leui.
Nice when you get that baby

JC

 

This one is a double holiday. Only 5 double holidays per year. New Years, July 4th, Labor Day, Thanks Giving, X-mas! The others, are time and a half! If I decide to work on my b-day, it's time and a half as well(like I'll actually work on my b-day)!

Long, Live and Prosper!
