Ok, Hal....think I have to eat a little humble pie here :whistle:
Much as I hate black rims, I have to admit they do look rather better than the previous incumbents :sick:

Ouch !! That hurt :blush:


I'm planning to live forever.....so far, so good !!

I like the rear ones a bit more than the front cos they give more illusion of depth.

Do it right - use Hammerite
When the blue light is flashing I am kidding.

Looking good Hal:)

If the color difference bothers you a quick spray with plastidip (plastisol?) would have them a similar colour. The plastidip stuff can be peeled of if you chose to keep them charcoal. :)

You'll need to update your signature picture now :)

rescued a neighbours rusty drive gates from the scapman

cut them down,



wire wheel on the drill and cleaned off the rust, ground some clean faces then welded them up, rust converter applied

ready to hang at the side of the house



quite pleased, welding getting a little better :dry:
