Sweet as! Hey people add pics in this thread with them fitted

Can't wait!

SIMBAD · 01-09-2011, 06:51 PM

Have they been fired away yet?

The Wheel Deal · 01-09-2011, 07:12 PM

Bank Details were sent this morning but as yet funds haven't cleared (this is not unusual). It may take us a few days to get the stock together and orders processed and posted so please be patient. Bear in mind that this order has coincided with a change in the Rimskins packaging so all of the packs in the group buy will be in manufacturing at the moment. ETA was to have enough available as of today but I still haven't checked with Rimskins how the production run was coming along. It isn't unusual for these things to be slightly delayed. I'll keep in touch as things progress.

Is it possible i get another set? I need a total of red skins for 6 rims. I already paid for 1st batch pasted. If so can you pm me the remaining total for additional skins? Or if i have to give it to them directly either way.

hey guys called jarrod today, he's hoping to get the rimskins on Thursday as there was a small issue with the new design packaging. Should be all in the mail Monday/ Tuesday so we should get em around next Friday.

icer pm wheel deal see if you can sort something out for ya

Thanks for the update

I actually got the last batch of red ones off Jarrord which were display stock due to the packaging

Quick update:

Payment and shipping details have been received here. All packs are in stock ready to post. Give us a day or two to get them in the post and you should see them soon.

Before

After

I personally really like the look of them and they are very easy to install. 1 of mine is 1/2mm to short at the top but its something only i will notice, just goes with the measure twice cut once. Cheers

The Wheel Deal · 14-09-2011, 03:33 PM

ACEz · 14-09-2011, 04:12 PM

They look great f1tzy really suit it!

**Dave R** · 15-09-2011, 01:55 AM

Hmm I fit one of them... drove into town and it was gone. I presume its lying somewhere on the motorway...

**Sorted** · 15-09-2011, 07:14 AM

Preparation is the key - I spent ages cleaning the outer rim surface as I use MR Sheen to clean the rims & Autoglym Tyre Black.

I left the car for an hour or so before driving it - before I drove my car for the next 3 days I re-pressed the RimSkins onto the rim to make 100% sure they were stuck on.

I presume once they are on the car for a while the RimSkins rubber actually hardens somewhat in the form it's set on your wheel and that also helps it stick.

The Wheel Deal · 15-09-2011, 08:14 AM

Agree with Sorted, preparation is KEY!

Make sure you read the instructions fully (like all blokes do

) and give yourselves some time for the skins to cure onto the wheel. It is paramount that any and all chemicals are removed from the wheel surface prior to fitting using the cleaning wipes supplied.

I'll repeat again - please READ THE INSTRUCTIONS FULLY before fitting to ensure best results.

The rubber used does have a slight memory to it so the longer it is formed to the shape of your wheel the less it will resist the shape and try and peel off. Hence why preparation during the application of the product is critical.

**98TLS** · 15-09-2011, 04:34 PM

They look great F1tzy really do.Cant wait for the postie to turn up,should look great on my black rims.
