Thanks mate, i use to use back to black about 20 years ago but alas it seems they have taken all the stuff that made it work out, i find it doesnt do anything now 😩
Very nice work and the wheels work very well. Surprised you did not remove the old dealer sticker on the back window. Brasso wadding works very well getting off the sticky stuff left behind.
Glad you agree!! The graphite pops with the red Looks an awesome combo! Will there be an update on the cav? Really do enjoy your videos. Keep up the great work. 👍🏻👍🏻
Love the channel , I see you have a mk2 cavalier, I have a scabby old mk3 😂 are you going to gaydon motor museum on the 13 th May for total Vauxhall day , I’m showing mine on the day
Very very VERY nice , pls are those 15inch alloy ? Looking to fit one in my 107 , ? And do any mechanic know how to do these stuffs as I am new driver , and where did you get the alloy with tyres from can you drop a link pls
Hi mate, thanks ! Glad you like it, i bought the wheels 2nd hand from facebook marketplace so unsure where you would get them new, they are 15" as you said Regards MEC
MEC-TEC, I have only just recently started watching your Channel and the work you have been doing on your Citroen C1, which has been excellent, and very useful for me, as I myself own a Citroen C1. Now you have fitted the Alloy wheels to your C1, do you still have the original C1 steel wheels with tyres you removed? If so would you be interested in selling the set of 4 to me please.?
Hi mate, welcome to the channel and thanks for the msg ! Unfortunatly the tyres on the steel wheels are pretty much worn out so not much good really All the best MEC 👍
@@mec-tec Hello again, many thanks for replying to my enquiry, it's appreciated. 👍 I'm not really bothered about the Tyres, it's the steel wheels I really want, so long as wheel are in goodish condition, e.g the rims have not been dented on curbs and the like. I want another set so I can have my wheels refurbished and I don't have to have my car off the road while they are being done, mine are rusty and need a really good respray. So if yours are in good condition I'll buy them from you, so long as the price is right. So if you want to sell the full set, can you quote me a quote me a price please for the wheels, plus postage? 👍
@@mec-tec : I think my spigot rings doesn't fit properly causing vibrations. I have fitted 15 inch 6J ET38 alloys with 195/45/15 tyres to match the OEM ride height. Would that make the ride much stiffer? How is your experience ? To get the outside dia of the , I need to take the wheels off to measure?
Looks great. I used to use back to black for stuff like mirrors and it would work well on the bumper inserts too.
Thanks mate, i use to use back to black about 20 years ago but alas it seems they have taken all the stuff that made it work out, i find it doesnt do anything now 😩

Hi mectec, the body came up lovely, I think the wheels look a lot better, maybe just touch them up if needed

Very nice work and the wheels work very well. Surprised you did not remove the old dealer sticker on the back window. Brasso wadding works very well getting off the sticky stuff left behind.

Graphite grey for the wheels
I’m toying with the same colour for my 15s on the capri as it’s also red! They too need a refurb.

@@theloneranger2101 : If you still looking for a set wheels with good tyres, I have recently put some alloys and looking to sell the steelis
Hello, do they rub? i think i missed when u said it :)
Hi, no these wheels dont rub at all, they are the perfect size 👍👍
I’m thinking gloss black for the wheels 😅
Hi mate yes i did consider that, but wanted to try n do something different id not seen before 👍👍
You made that car utterly gorgeous! I want mine to gleam like that! Do people do that level of detail and polishing if you pay them?
Hi thanks so much glad you like it, yes there are detailing companies who will detail the car as I have done on mine 👍👍👍
Did you need any spigot rings, with the aftermarket wheels?
Hi mate, yes i did use spigot rings with these wheels 👍
@@mec-tec : I think my spigot rings doesn't fit properly causing vibrations. I have fitted 15 inch 6J ET38 alloys with 195/45/15 tyres to match the OEM ride height. Would that make the ride much stiffer? How is your experience ?
