What a stunner!  Car and scenery.

Still looking for some oem Monzas?  Don't bother because those wheels look superb.  Love the black alloy / white car look  :cool:

Cheers guys, was a great wee trip. Thanks Booth, I'm coming round to them a bit. Still looking for the Monzas I reckon though :)

Rgdogg - they're Flashpoint 9 spoke rims. I think the previous owner's thinking was that they look like the VWR wheels that VW developed for their race cars.

Indeed and retrofit Xenons!

I still rather like the non LED rears too.

Quite like the idea of the LED Backlights. Xenons are a bit too expensive though :)

Looks awesome man. Those wheels really suit the car  :cool:

Ohh and i have to agree with the above comments. LED tails and retro fit xenons would just finish the car off nicely! You can pick a set of aftermarket OEM style xenon headlights up for the same as a set of LED tails.  :laugh:

Cheers. They are growing on me, but still think I'll go Monza if I can find a genuine set :)
