Title: throwin some stirling at the mk3...HELP
Post by: golfpro on 17 November 2005, 19:52
right, iv been thinkin about this for a while as some of you know but i want some advice on these. Think Iv found what im lookin for, deep borbet A's. Id want to get the centres sprayed black so would like to know what the cost for this is likely to be. Also what will the damage be for tyres? dont need to be anything special, just need to be rubber!

Will also be smoothing the splitter into the bumper and probably a lot more smoothing to be done, a bit alla hardcore. but your advice is needed!

oh and if any of you photo shoppers fancy it then feel free!

yeah do it, glad I took the risk, seems to have worked well!

Wish I'd got the 9's at the rears too but that can be arranged later. Need firmer suspension though as it scrubs at the back with fatty's in and rough roads.

Tyres - £60-90 a corner. Got mine brand new unused from ebay.
