What a classy way to enter the GTi club... Nice one!

He can probably get new alloys with new tyres fitted and a set of coilovers for what those those BBS alloys are worth too...

Jammy git!  :grin:

He plans on keeping the anni theme and having the alloys centres done anthracite colour.
But out of interest what are his wheels worth then?

Post by: Bandit127 on 29 May 2012, 22:02
If they are what I think they are and in good nick about £450.

If they are not then someone will be along to flame me shortly... LOL And let me know if they are not and he is thinking of selling - I want to keep mine OEM and those wheels are perfect for me. But not at £450...  :cry:

http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=232032.0 (http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=232032.0)

EDIT - maybe the £450 was for a set of 18s... This one needs a refurb and £75 values a set at £300.

The wheels are the normal 16" anni BBS wheels. So does that mean they are BBS rc's?

Does the rear splitter skirt bit on the back bumper clip off like the front splitter? Don't think iv ever taken a rear one off. And James before you scrap the white one take the rear splitter off to replace the one on your anni as it has a big hole in it where they have put the tow bar.

Ah right will have to be a case of cutting a section out of the other cars and plastic welding it in then and then spraying it in in satin black or something then.
