  1. Makes more sense Any decent wheel refurb place can do a pretty goos colour match. Alternatively, a chance to get them all done in a nice new colour!
  2. So you're on aftermarket wheels but asking Toyota for a paint code?

    NW meet 15th April

    Right you weird and wonderful Northerners! I'm up in Leeds for a friends 30th on Friday 14th April and it's then Tuning Developments open day on Sunday 16th April. So I was wondering who would be up for meeting on Saturday 15th for some food/drinks? We've decided that Chester is the place to be and @adamj29 has recommended Barton Rogue for a great curry house. http://bartonrouge.co.uk/chester/ Date: Saturday 15th April Time: 7pm Place: Barton Rouge, 1-4 Granary Wharf, Steam Mill St, Chester CH3 5AN Need to gain a list of who would be wanting to attend and locations before deciding for sure: smudge + 1 adamj29 + 1 jamie_gt86 + 1 Lauren & Mark Mike Kevin & Debs ALB453 + 1 Keethos Paul

    Top Gear 2017

    Yesterday I had the privilege of attending the new Top Gear studio to see the 1st episode of season 2 being filmed! Unfortunately we weren't allowed phones in the studio so I don't have any pictures, but we were treated to the new trailer which I've just seen posted on Facebook as well: I have to say that I am a HUGE fan of the original trio and the Grand Tour was excellent bar a few small changes that need to be worked into season 2. After the nightmare that was Top Gear with the ginger tosspot last year, the show was pretty much dead to me until they made some major changes. Luckily, they did and yesterday was a fantastic experience! Dunsfold is only about 45mins from me which always makes it easier, however standing around for 2 hours in the drizzle and wind whilst waiting to be taken to the studio from the car park in the middle of the airfield did dampen our spirits slightly. No idea what the delay was but we did see the 86 being hurled around the track which instantly got me excited to see that the rumours were indeed true! Top Gear's new "reasonably FAST" car (not too fast of course, these are celebrities not racing drivers on the show) is a 2017 GT86! We finally made it into the new studio and it looks fantastic. It's a lot smaller than the old one but it's been modernised and seems a lot more functional seeing as the show is 95% outside of the studio of course. The new trio seem to work really well together, the have a decent chemistry and all bring something unique to the show. Le Blanc is witty with a great passion for all things automotive, Harris is a fantastic driver with excellent car knowledge and Reid reminds me a lot of Hammond, being the younger, cheeky addition to the group. I won't ruin it too much for you, but I'm really excited to see how this new format turns out. Keep an eye out for me in the background when they've got the guest on the sofas talking to them too! First episode is due to air on 5th March
