I am mates with him - but I'd go there even if I wasn't.
What colour you getting your wheels and undertray done?

Keeping the wheels black (laquer is peeling) and undertray black.

Thing is, last time they didnt get right into the holes for the wheel nuts. You could see bare alloy.
With this car, I would want it done perfect and it won't be as easy due to the amount of spokes.

Just called Willie Simpson @ Blasted Alloys in Laurencekirk - he's coming to pick the wheel up tomorrow.
He was recommended via Mini guys in Aberdeen.
