DoubleDeuce1973 Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 They look awesome, do you think they would suit a gunmetal 350z? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

helimeddaz Posted August 3, 2011 Author Share Posted August 3, 2011 Ok these are the finished items. Only just managed to get them fitted. Ben busy. I know they've already been copied. Flattery indeed. I've had my centres colour coded and used the Z version, not the Nissan. Nice little touch I think. Hope you like. Cosidering these were damaged quite a bit, the finish is first class. Nissan replaced my original Rays 2 weeks ago because of corrosion. The ticket price they were charged under warranty was (Big swallow) £3528.00. That is just crazy. These are now sat in my garage all wrapped up nice and cosy after a good coat of wax. I asked Brian at The Wheel Specialist why they cost so much to buy new. His answer was Rays are very strong Drop forged wheels (He had to explain that process to me), But hey are also very light, which I hadn't noticed till I picked one up without the tyre on. Lastly he said he'd never seen a buckled one from normal use (Ever). So thats what we're paying for . I still think it;s a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexx Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Looking good. Set of spacers would finish the job nicely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleDeuce1973 Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Hate to say it but not only did I copy your wheels, I also bought the Z caps and had them done swell!! Lol Looks like your caps came out similar to mine in a slightly lighter shade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helimeddaz Posted August 3, 2011 Author Share Posted August 3, 2011 Yes deffo on the spacers Lexx. (Next item on the to do list). Will it never end DD I always say if it looks good do it. The colour is bang on though. It's just the way the light hit it. The caps are a flat surface and obviously everything on the wheel is curved. If you hold the caps up and move them in the light the match should be spot on. They were a complete bar steward to get in as well. They look great on your Z M8.

One thing you do need doing is updating your sig - too much time drooling over the wheels But have to say, they do look good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
