Al - was that a standard M.E. thing or do you think it was retrofitted at some point?


I checked it today yes the Renault Logo is still on the shifter!

Are they painted silver and then there is a lot of intricate masking-taping done before the yellow is applied? Or Vice Versa?



I checked it again, the guy told me he is doing it with masking tape, more
than two tyres per evening he isn't able to do.




Good question in German it is called "Pulverbeschichtung" is burned in the oven.
Let me see in English it is called powder coated.
First the Rims have been sandblasted and than they have done the powder coating,
it took approx. 5 weeks. price 1.200,-- €

Wheels look good.

Are you planning to add the black side trim back onto the car to break it up a little?

I thought the yellow wheels would be too much but that looks great!
