Cheers mate, Its slightly lighter and yellower than the actual TD gold and I love it. Really hate those orangy shades of gold.

Cheers mate.
So do I paint the lettering in on the lips and if so what colour?
RE: Dum-Dums Bianca GTi6 - Poodle - 09-08-2012
F. I. T.
Paint the lettering white, would look uber-stealthy.
RE: Dum-Dums Bianca GTi6 - Dum-Dum - 09-08-2012
Last coat of the last wheel is done! Done 4 cans of paint today, so glad i didnt pay the RRP for it at about £11 a can.

I was leaning towards white too but balck or red could be cool.
Leaving them gold would be uber-stealthy.
RE: Dum-Dums Bianca GTi6 - 4WayDiablo - 09-08-2012
to be honest id keep it white or even just leave it, too many colours could look cluttered
Dum-Dums Bianca GTi6 - kentiiboii - 09-08-2012
Don't think white lettering would work on the gold. But they look very nice. Multispokes are a pain to spray. You got to have the can low enough and at a angel for it to catch. But get it wrong and you'll end up catching it with bottom of can.
RE: Dum-Dums Bianca GTi6 - samass - 09-08-2012
they look good, better finish from the hammerite than i was expecting!
id no bother painting the lettering, better with them fully gold imo

Yeah fair point.
Stealth bum mode it is then. Well as stealthy as gold wheels on a white 6 with a win pipe at 7 grand will ever be.
Just need tyres now, Think the credit limit on my card is getting increased this month woop.
RE: Dum-Dums Bianca GTi6 - 1616six - 09-08-2012
If anything black writing, not convinced with the colour at all yet but hoping i'll be swayed once they are fitted.
RE: Dum-Dums Bianca GTi6 - Scott - 09-08-2012
Looking forward to seeing these fitted!
RE: Dum-Dums Bianca GTi6 - 4WayDiablo - 09-08-2012
Hmm. GITD lettering... I think so...
DO IT :-)

RE: Dum-Dums Bianca GTi6 - Dum-Dum - 10-08-2012
So alongside Poodle helping me weigh all the bits I stripped from the car I also had another helper who really only wanted to sleep on bits wed removed and eat stuff
So after the strippage
I found this box of tricks under the rear seat metal bat thing, any ideas what it is cos ph3s dont have them. I moved it for now but i want rid of it.
A final pic of the wheels being painted
And a sneaky one of a test fit. Really wish id taken a better photo as it dosent do it justice.
RE: Dum-Dums Bianca GTi6 - C.A.R. - 10-08-2012
Gonna look sweet as f*ck!
No idea what the module is in the back though, on a phase 3 isn't the central locking Ecu there somewhere? Where do those wires go to?
RE: Dum-Dums Bianca GTi6 - Poodle - 10-08-2012
Those really do look awesome...
Zak is win, need to bring him to meets. Although you may wake up to find Niall/Connor has painted his ears/tail pink...
RE: Dum-Dums Bianca GTi6 - Dum-Dum - 10-08-2012
Cheers Chris. Really tempted to see if I can find a good set of part worns to hurry up the tyre fitting process.
Alex Ill bring him to some meets when we have some that are suitable. He loves being in the car.
RE: Dum-Dums Bianca GTi6 - Niall - 11-08-2012
That module is the BSI which is under the dash under the hazard switch on the ph3
Looking forward to seeing these wheels finished!

What does the BSI do, can I remove it?
Wheels will be on soon, I looked at tyres on camskill and my favourite falkens are £249.56 delivered but ive found a set on ebay for £233.55 delivered so im trying out camskills price beater to see what I get.
Hopefully have them on before the end of the week.
Slightly stuck in my head for what to do for wheel nuts
the cheapest lightest option would be standard taper seated nuts which are probably £16-£25
however the nicer option for repeatedly removing wheels would be a stud conversion and TBH I really have a love for splined nuts (makes it harder for the wheels to be stolen) however this will make it up to about £40.
Decisions, Decisions, Decisions.
RE: Dum-Dums Bianca GTi6 - Poodle - 12-08-2012
Will have to get that new forest meet set up then! Pretty sure the bsi is part of your immob set up, probably best leave it be lol.
RE: Dum-Dums Bianca GTi6 - Matt - 12-08-2012
Stud conversion!

Can it wait till the middle of September cos I cant get leave from work till about 2 weeks after the end of the paraolympics. Also car is getting lowered, group n engne mounts, brembos and a full front suspension rebuild on the 28th at Kris's

RE: Dum-Dums Bianca GTi6 - Dum-Dum - 13-08-2012
Really unimpressed with Camskill! Sent them a price match last night against macclesfield tyres on ebay and they lost the form. Spoke to them today on the phone and they said on the phone "oh yeah macclesfield tyres, I know them well" but i thought nothing of it and resubmitted it as asked.
Got the email back shortly after sating that as macclesfield tyres delivery time is more than 2 days that they wont match it.
Want ot order on ebay and macclesfield tyres have put the price up to match the camskill price. Cheeky f*ckers.
Now ordered here for £233.54 for 4 falkens.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/150858618645?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649#ht_862wt_884
Gone out and bought my splined nuts and the special tool today, ordered with 16 studs (that will be here Wednesday) they were £42.50 for the whole car. Theyer actually surprisingly light.
Just need to wait for bits to turn up and its fitting time.
Anyone want to buy some 'clones?
RE: Dum-Dums Bianca GTi6 - Niall - 13-08-2012
BSI (body systems interface) controls your central locking, interior lighting, immobiliser and alarm. Even with a unlocked ECU it's still needed I think. If I see you any time soon, can plug Peugeot planet In and see if we can program it all out so you can get rid although personally I'd just mount it and leave be.
RE: Dum-Dums Bianca GTi6 - Dum-Dum - 13-08-2012
Ah OK, thats an awful lot of control in one little box
RE: Dum-Dums Bianca GTi6 - Niall - 13-08-2012
Yeah. On a ph1 I think you could remove it but it's too much hard work for no gains.
RE: Dum-Dums Bianca GTi6 - Chris - 13-08-2012
The one under the rear seat? If so that' just for the central locking.
On the ph2 the imob stuff is under the dash in the same place as the ph3's
RE: Dum-Dums Bianca GTi6 - Dum-Dum - 13-08-2012
So whats the black box inside the O/S rear quarter panel that im sure is part of the central locking / alarm
