Rims ended up being about a grand, and yes the bullet centres from the NZ guy....great product.

Looks great!
IMHO the overriders are OK but the bonnet bar spoils the flow

Sure does....I got a FB one, but then realised they don't fit to the same profile....short of a custom piece not much I can do.
The insert was stripped of colour to at least minimise the stand out factor.

Kia ora Mate love your car ,very cool . I just got some bullet caps from Phil Hutty and ran into a bit of trouble . I am running Hq front rotors and steel wheels with a 70mm hole , they fit perfectly in the hole but there is no room for them to go over the hub bit sticking out , did you have any trouble with yours?ImageImage

Hi,

The stock EK hubs look smaller than your ones....I found the front bullets to be a tight (lightly hammer on) fit....but tried each bullet till I found two that were slightly larger and fit well. Looks like yours is hitting at the base?
