Nice and shiny Smile

Not sure about the wheels though, reckon they would like nicer in silver or Anthracite.

Damn.....you've just spoilt my sarcastic comment about forgetting to clean the brake dust off.

Seriously though.....I still think the D3 looks 8) when cleaned up properly....and those black RRS alloys with MTRs look amazing.....(if they weren't black spares and I was going to powder-coat them I'd still do them anthracite though)

Nice work.....and now you get all weekend to make it dirty again Thumbs Up

Nice wheels Blue, don't listen to them, they look nice and mean with the MT/R's

Only thing to change (and I still need to do it) is to get the centre caps changed to the RRS supersharged & also paint them black Thumbs Up

Do have have some spare time to clean mine, i haven't done it since before Christmas!

Each to their own and all that...... Nice and clean but I don't like those wheels against the Cairns. First time I've seen a RAI on one too and I'm quite glad I don't have one of them either. From the side it looks so imposing.

So long as you're happy with it chap! Wink

My Cairns hasn't been cleaned for about a year....... Embarassed

when you're inside you have to make an effort to see the RAI thankfully, it was a small worry before I fitted it that I'd constantly be seeing it out of the corner of my eye but I don't.

Looking good.

I always clean mine before going to the dealers. I've seen them clean the entire side of a car with one "dip" of water on the sponge Shocked
