Cheers mate,

Thanks for the offer on the rocco interior but I've kinda blown the budget for the next couple of months  :sad:

Cheers Robz  :wink: good job it hasn't been seen today  :sad: :sad: it was white from the windows down  :angry:

Decided that I was going to get the front tyres changed because they were starting to get on my nerves  :angry:.Took it up to Buxton, got the tyres changed and the car feels better already :smiley: . Don't know why but it just seems to steer better. Felt really good having something go right after the disaster with the refurb  :sad:

The wheels are going back for a complete rework on Monday so I will sort proper pictures out possibly next weekend  :wink:

Cheers Nick......to be honest, when I went to pick the car up when the wheels were done I was sh!tting mesen  :laugh: but I think it really goes well with the Green

I decided this afternoon that I was going to sort the centres out as they were still the original grey  :sad:

So after a bit of Green paint and some VW resin covered centre stickers. Better than before  :smiley:. Going to get some new Wheel studs for it and paint the fake studs.

                                   

And this is how it is currently standing on the drive. The better pics will come next weekend. Possibly popping over to Dubfreeze so a good place for some pics  :smiley:

                                   

Thinking of possibly painting the VW badges to match the other cream bits  :undecided:

Comments welcome  :smiley:.

Seriously love those wheels  :cool:
I had cream badges on my old green Vento and was going to do the steelies cream before I sold the whole lot on. No pictures I'm afraid but it did look sweet with the dragon green paint  :cool:
On a slightly related note there's a united grey mk5 GTI over here with cream brake calipers, cream leather interior and cream GTI lipstick but he painted his badges black and it works really well. Black badges made the few cream bits stand out a lot more. Could be worth a shot!  :wink:
Not low enough mk5
Not on the road enough mk3

Hmmmmmm..................black badges, never thought of that  :cool:

I think I need to get hold of some old badges as these on it are in near perfect condition and I don't want to ruin them  :sad:

Cheers for the comments, I'm definitely going to lose the chrome badges and replace with colour  :cool:
