Centre caps when i opened the first box had no emblem, so i thought sh!t! ah not to worry ave got a spare set, bugger they kept springing out the wheel. Solution pinch them off the old ones...not bad they were slack in the hole but one had lost its emblem. Onto ebay and phoned the origonal supplier of the MK6 R wheels. They couldn't supply, suggested ebay. Ordered a set of centre stickers 55mm. Thought i'll modify the spare set. Broke off 1 lug no good broke off a second lug still no good. Nibbled the black rim off the edge...perfect  :grin: opened the second box..invoice and emblem stickers for centre caps inside! If anybody wants a hand with their alloys dont call me  :sad: :sad:

Replaced the Bridgestones with Goodyear Eagle f1 Asymmetric 2's - all four of them.  :smiley:

Never liked the Bridgestones and looking forward to seeing how Asymmetric 2's compare.

Mk7 Golf R alloys get fitted tomorrow. Many thanks to t.a. alloys. there's a story attached to the VW centre caps though!

Fitted, everybody and their dog loves them.....wish i had listened to the older wiser owls!!!

Got my sill dent removed by a dent specialist and decided to also get the car professionally detailed by OCD-NI.
Rollo has done a superb job and I highly recommend him for anyone in Northern Ireland.

Looking good for a car that is nearly 5 years old  :smiley:
