Ill get some better pics later in the week,

Ive just got the car back from "SPEC R" having had my "one off" custom intercooler made & fitted (build thread to follow),

Whilst the car was away i got busy parts hording lol,
Ive got a spare set of side repeaters being carbon dipped and then pin striped orange (to add this weekend),- in keeping with the orange interior stitching and a nod towards the gt3 rs (black and orange colour scheme),

Its not to everyones liking and i have two more sets of wheels so can return the car to oem if i get bored,
The pics dont do it justice but you get the idea,,

I could find these wheels more of a match on a VO 1M. Still not really bad on BSM.

I quite like it! Imagine it looks nicer on a sunny day in the flesh. Think the pin striped side repeaters will go well with it. Pin striped spoiler?

octainejunkee · 02-03-2013, 04:55 PM

Possibly going to pin strip the spoiler...one step at a time tho, ill take some better pics soon

Artemis · 02-03-2013, 05:05 PM

And here's another one: gold/bronze colored rims on red ...driven by Chris Harris.

Whenever I see pinstripes on wheels, I think "Firestone Wide Ovals", 67 Pontiac GTO. I can't think of our 1M as THAT retro.

LotusBoy · 02-07-2013, 05:16 AM

Well, 1967 is the best year ever !! But don't look back, disregard past references.
If you think out of the box, I think these wheels look pretty cool ...

Ian///M · 02-07-2013, 05:39 AM

Poor 1M. You may as well paint the shadow-line orange too
