Hi :)

Alloy Magic in Poole....great guys and did them in under a week as I needed them back on for Castle Coombe tomorrow.

As they are blue, and blue is the fastest colour then yes its faster lol...

Still not sure about the Chromed centres they supplied ??? Any opinions ?

All the best Brett :)

Hi :)

They did also paint the original silver centres with blue paint but the Porsche badge in the middle (red/gold/black needs repainting) ....

I will get my daughter who is brilliant at it to redo one and post here in a few days to see what you all think....

All the best Brett :)

They take years off the car.
Did you know at TipECs first NEC Show we had a NE region Blue 928S2 on the stand the same as yours (slots of course)?
