Excuse my ignorance, but what is a "Y Wheel"?

Looking good. I really like the pre-facelift, I still think I prefer it to the facelift models. I really like the 4 headlights and extra chrome compared to mine.

I've been debating with myself whether to fit a pre facelift front, a V8 front or to leave it as it is. There's so many options with our cars, it's hard to choose what you want to do with them.

Surely new wheels from rimmers would cost more than the cars worth EACH!
