Thank you chaps. For those with good memories, i was struggling to get a really good finish on the wheel rims. I decided that on further inspection i probabky couldn't do much better so went with what i had and got the spokes in. ![](https://preview.ibb.co/iTA8iK/2v2_JFVH3yx_Ahz_Ns.jpg) I decided against black hubs, opting instead for a dull aluminium appearance. Once everything was set, prep work starts so i can get the rear end in the frame. ![](https://preview.ibb.co/mfNcce/2v2_JFVHv5x_Ahz_Ns.jpg) Thank you all.
