Wheel rim edges......   www.alloygator.com
Worth every penny £59.94 a set of 5 (as compared to the mega cost to refurb)

Personally I'd get them fitted 'professionally' by a tyre fitter, as some peops have
had them come flyng off !

finish on the strut is alright tbh, managed to get a Ralliart logo in the middle as well ( put Ralliart sticker on then painted over it and peeled sticker off again )

this is the tape :) i used 10mm
