Duffman Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Wheels are currently in the process of getting a refurb in satin black. Removed them the other day and noticed that the nuts were very old, rusty looking...prob the original wheel nuts and they really could do with replacing. Don't wanto go getting my wheels refurbished and then have the wheel nuts spoiling it. I saw a set of blue wheel nuts somewhere before which I reckon could look quite good with the satin black but I don't have a clue where to got them. Also a set of black could be an option. Or maybe even just a nice new set of silver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duffman Posted June 9, 2009 Author Share Posted June 9, 2009 Think they may of been Rays wheel nuts i've seen http://www.jdmperformance.co.uk/item_detail.php?prodID=35680 Wasn't expecting to have to pay £100 for them though guess I will need to find cheaper alternatives Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might get a little score or whatever but nothing more than you will get with the bought ones. Won't be noticeable when on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Hammerite will make them a fair bit tougher so that would be an idea. To be honest i was just thinking of any old paint and some lacquer. Hammerite sounds like a plan Can you get it in spray though? Wouldn't fancy the brushed on effect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I go with Hammerite then i'll stick to black then...give the blue a miss. Good shout cheers Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
