I'm pretty sure I mentioned when we both were looking at the car that I wasn't a fan of the wheel finish

Thanks DJ,MO not VO,but near enough,any opinions wether it suits the Orange cars???????????
Do I or dont I,that is the question??
I certainly thinks it improves the dished effect on the rear wheels,aswell as making them look bigger,but is it too bling for a yorkshire lad?

But that's McLaren Orange - Andy's 12C is Volcano Orange.

oh yeah... the triple spoke Antera with the panther center cap!!!! jk




Andy, The diamond cut on those lightweight wheels looks spectacular on the VO car. Did you do stealth pack and carbon on the outside? Seems like you chose the stealth wheel color so you wanted a darker wheel but I don't think you can go wrong with adding a little flash. Still seems subtle to me.

DJ, You rock!! Great PS work.
