Re: Planning a respray

Depends on what bodywork it will need, if there`s some metalwork to do then then it goes up by the price of new parts and labour to cut out and weld back in, but I`d budget at least 2 grand for a proper paint job.

Re: Will these alloys fit with spacers

You`re mistaken, REARS fit with NO machining, fronts DEFO need machining.

If you get `em wacked out to 66mm the centre caps won`t fit afterwards. I usually machine `em less and sort out the offsets, grease caps etc to try and keep the original caps. What width of rims are they? What is the offset? (ET) See here for info from the Brickyard: http://homepage.ntlworld.com/mic...
