So, after running these wheels through a filthy winter they are in need of a refurb, but the question is, what do I do? It took me a long time to find the right wheels and I still think they are the right wheels, so I'll keep them, but do I keep them silver or change the colour? Maybe satin black, not gloss, not matt, but satin could work. Any other suggestions?

What mud guards do you have on this please? they look awesome, I like that they sit right behind the wheel on the rear, im not such a fan of the OEM ones that site halfway back along the rear bumper
Cheers!

They’re just cheap ones from eBay, £15.99 including trim fittings to secure them.

I wondered if they would be secure enough, but they've seen me through 2 winters and about 30000 miles in total and I've not lost one yet.

They do a great job and are much better than the OEM flaps, the front ones are not good because they are so small and the rear ones are set so far back that they do nothing to protect the bumper at all.

Silver or bright pink if you’re that way inclined @ChrisR

Cheers, I bought the travelinlite molded ones that sit inside the wheel arch but they are just too small to do anything meaningful, ill take a look at these instead

I’ll hopefully be fitting mine in the next couple of weeks, so I’ll let you know @JOG

 

[T6ARF]

SILVER against a grey van just works.... gives a good contrast and you don’t lose any of the depth or detail of the wheel

That would be great
