New wheels
Here are the new wheels. The yellow has come out slightly different from the sample and I don't think they did as good a job as I hoped. However, Rimstock, who made the wheel, have said that if I want, they will do a colour match for me and do the wheels for me with a much better process than the company that coloured them this time.

Ian, what made you decide against the black wheels with the yellow line around the outside?
I applaud your individuality but, for me, the black wheels with slim yellow pinstripe detail seemed to suit the stealth character of the rest of the car. The all yellow wheels seem to detract and almost conflict with the raison d'être.

Ian, I can't see you in the background in the yellow suit. Has Helen photoshopped the picture.  Wheels look good but it would be nice to see the overall effect in daylight and not covering road salt, need some more pics How are you progressing with the furry dice?

The black wheels with yellow stripe are not available to fit the Aero. I could get a true 'one off' set but that would add another £5k to the wheel cost.
The raison d'être isn't really to be stealthy but not likely to be copied!

An amazing effect - but unless I need new glasses, the stealth effect is so good that the car is near invisible!!  Is it GATSO proof? 
New joints for old!

Shooter, I think the color scheme is great. Always been a fan of mat black. (I guess it is silk or satin) I had a Ducati "rat" bike for a while (mat black with white wheels) but doing it on an aero is a brave move and the effect is super. Would love to see yours and Yuri's together some day. JT (both in broad daylight preferably  )
