My Vento! Fresh Rimzzz and Rubber!

looks ace mate. if you roll the arches, can you stick the arch trims on without any lairy gaps?

Not entirely sure on that one .. they have a flat section that hugs your inner arch and you can actually screw them onto the arch from the inside like mine. If they were rolled you wouldnt be left with enough material to screw the arches in but you could always just use sealing to hold them on... ive got some really good black blue-tac kinda stuff that doesnt damage the paint but holds forever - the arches could sit on the car just using that. If you wanted rolling and the arches on you may have to cut away some of the plastic trim to avoid scrubbing when low .. Trial and error that one i think

Hey guys.. little bit more progress to post up..

1st of all.. Just been cautioned by the feds haha! " If it happens again son, your looking at 3 points on your licence!"
Any Pressed plates apparently dont reflect back at speed camera's because theyre embossed! (not that i even speed!!) ... so thats right - theyre all illegal whether theyre banded or unbanded like mine!!

Sticking to my normal plates from now on! I said to the guys who pulled me over... ive had police cars behind and infront that havent pulled me over for this and they've been on ages.. and he just said "sorry, they're illegal" so naturally i questioned ilalic font, small plates, carbon-look font and again.. "sorry, theyre illegal too.. were cracking down now!"

Mod-wise..

Just got my rear brake conv. setup
