Charlie - Mini Mk3

[Jared Mk3]

I'd imagine that once the wheel nuts are on that the marks will disappear into the background. We definitely never noticed them when the wheels were fitted to Spencer.

I was thinking the same. I think having tyres on will help as well.

Well, all four wheels are now polished and assembled. I just need to get the bolts torqued up to spec and I'm sorted. I did, however,manage to snap the head off of one bolt - I didn't put it under much strain, so I think it was weak from the beginning (didn't have a problem with any of the other ones) :



On a side note, I just managed to miss a big hailstorm while working on the car today. Oh, and I also stripped the window winder handle, so I need another one of those . . .

They look stunning! Great job dude.

Really came out looking good, now all you need to do is package them up and send them up to me for safe keeping.

Pity about the stripped/broken parts.
Happens to all of us (read as me) quite often.

One of those things I guess - it happens.

This will be the last update on these rims until tyres are attached - promise.

I decided to replace all the allen bolts, rather than just the one snapped one - better safe than sorry :

So this will be the last update on the wheels until they arrive on my doorstep and I begin to write about them instead
On a side note, they've come out looking amazing, another testament to your ongoing hard work to getting Charlie looking like a real one of a kind stunner in SA.

Jared at the rate you're going you only going to be allowed to put this car on a trailer if you want to take it anywhere.

Thanks guys Nice to know the hard work is noticed haha. I still have something else rather special on its way that will be with me this week hopefully.
