Default Gold wheel brigade.....

farewell

After having my wheels reconditioned in dark anthracite I am no longer a member of the brigade.

Here's the new look





A much meaner and stealthier look me thinks...and all for 30 quid a wheel!!!

I would definately recommend ProClean in Prescot for alloy wheel refurbs.

Gold Wheels are so tweeee, so 90's, so Gay, so errrrrrm Gay!!

Did I say that only members of the Village People like Gold Wheels these days??

Did I say that they were as GAY as Dale Winton!?

Do yourselves a favour ........ be a REAL man ....... dump the Golds, grow up and be counted!!

I don't think ProClean have a website, they're a very small garage.

They can be contacted on 0151 426 1885

They even removed my silver valves and replaced with black ones so they didn't stand out

Wow! They look really good on a black car...

Has anyone had their gold wheels refinished anthracite on a WR blue Scooby? If so, could you post pictures? I'm seriously thinking about having it done in a week or so at Romax in Stockton.

For what it's worth mate I think that would look fantastic.

Blue and Gold is seen as 'chavvy' now, if mine was blue I would definately go down the anthracite route

Didn't the P1's have anthracite wheels? They looked great

Right as you are....it's true.

I had people outside of Scoobynet say 'your car is gorgeous but gold wheels look chav'

Alright Paul, they look mean.

Q: Did they paint or stove emamel ?
Q: Did you take the car to them, or just the wheels
Q: Did they take the tyres off, or did you ?

Is it the gaff over ther road from the Fusellier ?

Cheers

hi yoza

Long time no speak mate

a) Haven't got a clue mate, I pays my money and gets me wheels, they could have used felt tip for all I know

b) I took the car to them, dropped it off 9am and picked up at 6pm - just waiting for the numerous speeding tickets to drop on my mat now

c) They took the tyres off, I actually saw all 4 wheels without tyres as I turned up early to pick it up


How's the family doing?
