Ha ha Venoms. What a load of gash they were.

The new alloys look the biz.

As F1_fan says.... not really available in Australia yet.

So while they may not be quite unique they are far from common.

Are they bronze or gunmetal ?

Just fitted GM to my classic, and already have the bronze on my NewAge.

They are Gunmetal, and thanks for your photos in another thread that made me choose the Rotas.

I am hoping the Venoms become such a 'classic" that I get heaps of money for them when I have them refurbished to sell LOL. Maybe I need a Ford forum to put them on.

Anyway, the Rotas now have black wheel nuts as well, which just adds to the overall look.

I feel a front bumper refurb coming on though......

Hi everyone and belatedly thanks for your compliments.

I like them too. Just one question though....?

Will this car still look cool with a blonde chic driving it?
