Hi Cammj,

I really like the SR model in Vivid Blue .. I.M.O. might just be the pick of colours to show off the bodykit - Congratulations... :P

Good looking cammj, nice one.

I see you have the same alloys as mine "FondMetal Tech5". I've been promised a new set as the chrome inserts have begun to pit quite badly. Known problem, apparently.

Oh don't worry about it. My dealer has my new ones in but I'm close to my 1st service so it can wait until then. The new ones will not pit, so they say.

I'll try and get a picture of the pitting later so you know what to look out for. They're under warranty so don't worry too much.

Could the pitting be caused by the Salt they use on the road in old blighty?  We don't need to do that over here... :D

We only salt our roads just after the snow/ice has landed You know, just in time for it not to do any good.

Even it there were salt around, it shouldn't cause pimples in the chrome.
