Hi lads, Richard from Sheffield here. found the site whilst searching for some sportpack rims for, er, don't know if I should say this up here, my Metro!

Don't worry thought, I did used to be into Mini's but then had it nicked when I built if from a brand spanking shell and rebuilt turbo lump, and then a bad bike crash has buggered my back up so Mini's just aren't comfortable for me at the mo' :sad:

Run a shop called Customs-Inc, in the early stages but get ready to see some really sick rides :grin:

Anyway, i'm after a set of sportpack wheels and nuts, whats the going rate? seems about £250 - £300?

And stop breaking Metro turbo's, there's bugger all left and they're rare!

Anyway, i'm not hostile so don't worry, kinda getting itchy fingers for a Mini project again!

Rich

Depends how much you want to spend, but aftermarket black and beige steering wheels aren't very common. If you find a wheel you like I can get it trimmed however you want it, I use a couple of very good upholtserers who do all my work and are reasonably priced.

cooper shaz; cheers for that, I'll drop him a line later :thumbsup:

And whats with the square smilies????

Cool, pm me your address and I'll see if he can give me some leather samples to send me, as there are sooo many different shades and qaulities. I'll get you a couple of qoutes for the cheaper leather and the more expensive stuff and let you go from there :thumbsup:
