Are these worth bidding on? Until I can afford to buy some Sprint alloys for Molly, I'm looking to buy a better set of wheels trims, as I don't like the "black things" that are currently on Molly. The auction finishes tomorrow afternoon, so I need to put a bid on tonight, as I can't bid on it from work.<br>

I have a set of Sprint alloys that will be getting the treatment in the next few months. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START ;) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... s/wink.gif ALT=";)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->

you have to use different wheel nuts to use them. The ones for the plastic hub caps are like top hats and the ones on the earlier dolomites.... aren't <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->

I have folk polish my things for me...not very often though, last time was September, Jod and Susie on the same day...at the same time!<br>
<br>
Close your eyes and you can't tell the difference!

<p></p><i></i>

I watched the polishing, and i must confirm that the smile on his face when it was all finished made the elbow grease all worth while.<br>
<br>
I've never seen anything so grubby come to such a beautiful finish before, and I will certainly be asking Jod and Susie to help me rub down the lumps my red one is showing at the moment.<br>

are early Dolomite trims and I feel the urge to nick them if I see them on anything other than an early genuine article dolomite...like anything with a ohv engine or a plate later than N....<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :hat --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... s/pimp.gif ALT=":hat"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>
<br>
Your car deserves its black dustbin lids....and is unworthy of anything else...<br>
<br>
Actually I agree the bin lids look crap. I reckon 1500SE wheels look cool on an ohv car...or the fishnet alloys off a 1.1S Metro. <br>

Brings a tear to my eye when I see a pic of my car as it was <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :( --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /frown.gif ALT=":("><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->

Well not only has Molly got "black bin lids" on her, but somebody at some point has cut the outer edges off some "Ford Corsair" chrome trims, and attached them behind round the outer rims!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :eek --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... ns/eek.gif ALT=":eek"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>
<br>
Now that does look naff! But unfortunately the wheels rims themselves are pretty crap, so the "Corsairs" will have to stay on for now.

<!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Caterham-5-5Jx13- ... dZViewItem" target="top">These</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> would look good on a smaller engined Dolomite, I reckon.<br>

I think the fact that Jod is a giant and he has chin stubble <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>might</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> just give it away! Mind you, he's better at the old Yam-Yam speak than I am. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :lol --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /laugh.gif ALT=":lol"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>
<br>
Debs, I've seen Mr N's shiny bits he was going to sell you - they are ever so nice and caught my eye. I could always spend many happy hours rubbing them! Hmm, now which one of my cars can I put them on? <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START ;) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... s/wink.gif ALT=";)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>
