Just got my original GTB rims back from BJV Flaunden, mmmmmmm

I went up in person as I wanted to see the colours "in the flesh" as so much is lost in photos. I decided on Anthracite in the end, although they have a shade they call "M3" which is also fantastic. (darker/sparklier).

They cant colour the plastic centre caps, so I have done them with a rattle can.
(match could be better to tell the truth -shame they cant provide a colour code to make life easy I may try to improve on them)
(Even they said 'M3' would be very hard to match) -fine if you have metal centre caps which can be done at the same time.

Trouble is they are so nice I dont want to dirty them
