Mugen MF10's - Finally on the car :D
At last I have these on the car!!
I've had these sitting since the end of the summer whilst doing other bits to the car. I tracked the down in Singapore of all places, an expat had them up for sale. Now I've actually got around to getting them sorted and on the car.
I have to say I'm really happy with the look. I had them in the original bronze and I wanted to really keep the anodised finish. However the previous owner tracked them a lot and they had heavy brake dust build up, and some idiot at his local tyre shop took wire wool to some of the spokes on the front to try and get it off and wore through the anodised finish in one place before he realised his was a massive tit
Any way I couldn't find anywhere that would reanodise them without saying 'we only have 1 bronze colour, perhaps it will match' and at £70 a wheel before getting them prepped and fully restored I made the tough choice to go with getting them painted. To be honest I think they look awesome, they go with the subtle modded look I'm going for with the car, and the colour we choose to go with the moonrock paint
Please don't flame me for not keeping the bronze, I did try lol. Oh and they are not for sale

Thanks for that PM; I did'nt follow that lead through as the cost of shipping was too much. I've decided to go down another route along similar lines.
