You can buy Acrylic 2 Pack paint in cans too... but you'll need quite a few lmao But you wont be able to buy it in halfords, though halfords do a very shiny silver paint... I don't know how it would last.........

It's all said in the thread... but.........seeing as i'm nice !
Chemical Metal (halfords)
Etch Primer 2pack Acrylic (Plus 2pack thinners and hardener)
Base Coat Paint 2pack Acrylic (plus 2pack thinners)
Lacquer Coat 2pack Acyrlic (plus 2pack thinners and hardener)
Cause I used my compressor.. but you can buy them in spray cans too from the paint shop...
Total cost about £50 roughly... can't be arsed to work it out properly, cos I already had the lacquer etc and I use the thinners on other things I'm painting to... so it gets a bit muddled price wise....
Well last time i checked i didnt own a company, and have not to my knowledge had any part in top gear or 5th gear. One thing i'd like to point out is why the hell does the owner? (i guess) of a company called 'dp motorsport' drives a 1.2i nova merit..
Or maybe you sell those performance enhancing sunstrips and stick on fuel caps?
On the subject of the wheels, i've seen the finished set today as Ben is down in Reading doing the welding on my car. Absoloutley top notch May get a pic of them on the car tomorrow to put them up on here.

oops forgot to take a pic, but i can vouch that they are nothing short of top notch, as with most of ben's stuff i've seen like painted rocker covers etc
The centrecaps with the griffin in really set the wheels off
