    Struck gold and found a guy who was stripping his wheels and replacing them by putting on 6" lips so gave me these

    best i found was a company in germany who make barrels,
    Two 3.5" lips delivered to Ireland is working out at E470.




    will go back over it again as there are a few rough places where i missed with the higher grades. but TBH it beats paying E500 for second hand scratched lights

    now onto the interior

    To say it was a stomach wrenching moment when it happened would be a understatement,those s15 lights aint cheap, found out it was N20 thinners, think its different to regular thinners

    so started today at the door cards,

    First take one s15 door card (pool table optional)



    Carefully ripped off the fabric,


    spend hours rubbing off every last piece of foam so the adhesive has something solid to stick to. and mask off the edge.



    apply the adhesive to both the door and the fabric.

    as soon as they touch that's it so you better have it lined up right the first time.

    then carfully trim the extra off





    one down one to go,





    has anyone ever used fabric dye before? looking into it for the back seats but cant find anything,

    i want something proper that wont rub off onto peoples clothes,
