That makes three i know of that have that great colour scheme

Off to Wakefield for practice on Sunday. Todays temp in Goulburn is -2 to 8 . Cooling shouldnt be an issue. Getting the tyres warm might be.

Hope my car trailer gets through rego tomorrow

Phil

Cool

Hey Phil good luck with rego i hope you go through without to much drama .I must admit as daunting as it will be going to get the car tested it means that you are very close to the fun stuff.

Les, Yep black is a mongrel to keep clean

Ledge, Rego was hard enough. Keeping registered may prove to be equally difficult. Time will tell. Till then I am gonna have fun

Absolutely immaculate!

Best looking Cobra I've come across.

Plenty of hours to come keeping it in that condition

Great Look !!

Speaking with OZ Wheels he said that he would not recommend polishing or chroming the wheel centres. The Magnesium content causes flaws, flaking and chipping.

I was going to use the new Chrome FX paint as an alternative, but you wheels look fantastic. What's your opinion about what I have been told?

I was told the same by peter at ozwheel but none the less i have ordered my wheels raw so i can see how they will come up . I have spoken to a few people who have said that with polishing it may not be as chrome like and posibly a few pin holes so when i get my wheels hopefully this week i will give them a polish and let people know what they come up like . If they are no good i to will be sending mine to get the new chromefx paint finish . At work we have got a few things already done by this system and it is about 95% as reflective as chrome but inside a polished 17" rim i dont think you would notice the difference .
