scousa Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Hi, has anyone has issues fitting dmb overlays to the streetpack 17 alloys? I ordered 55mm however they don't exactly cover the edges of the old badge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philf1 Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 I did mine with 55mm and they are fine,did you warm them up before you fit them? That way they stretch a little. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scousa Posted July 6, 2013 Author Share Posted July 6, 2013 Yeah warmed them all up before applying them, how much did you have to stretch them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philf1 Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Not much to be honest I took the centre caps out of the wheels which made it a but easier then warmed the gel and the cap with the wife's hair dryer and smoothed them on pushing the gel from the middle outwards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scousa Posted July 6, 2013 Author Share Posted July 6, 2013 That's exactly what I done :/ really annoyed tbh cause its ruining the look of my refurbished alloys Cheers for the reply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b1g_dav3 Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Send pictures in to them? Maybe they're a little off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scousa Posted July 7, 2013 Author Share Posted July 7, 2013 Yeah I've contacted them however their response was not the greatest they was almost implying I need a custom size made, so i thought I'd check on here if people had managed to fit them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iNath Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 Have you put them on the wheels yet? Think that looks normal but you don't really see it when it's flush in the center of the wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scousa Posted July 7, 2013 Author Share Posted July 7, 2013 Yeah heres some photos, the blue is still visible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunny78 Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 Had the same problem with mine and now one is starting to peel after about six months :( Like inath said it's not that noticeable once on, I'm just living with it.......for now <_< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scousa Posted July 7, 2013 Author Share Posted July 7, 2013 Ahh right not the greatest product then really :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iNath Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 They can do custom sizes if you want 56/57mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philf1 Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 You can still a little of the blue on mine but as stated once on not really that noticeable, yours do look to have more showing than mine however. By the way love the wheels what colour is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scousa Posted July 8, 2013 Author Share Posted July 8, 2013 Yeah just wish I'd have known before ordering them, ah well always next time. Cheers Phil they're actually ford graphite grey I'll get some decent photos up soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philf1 Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Could you just add a little black touch uppaint over the blue so it blends in better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scousa Posted July 8, 2013 Author Share Posted July 8, 2013 Yeah that's what I'm planning to do, going to get one of the pens from Halfords an go round them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
