More pics wanted, Sorry!
« on: 01 November 2009, 14:19 »
I know i've asked for pics before but now it's really getting serious! i'm going to order my 5dr gti with standard 17" monza's this week but i'm really struggling to make up my mind which colour to go for, the problem is that my internet search skills are pretty pants and all i seem to see are 18" wheels which doesn't help much, some of you on here got some pics of white up for me which was great and i've seen red, shadow blue, and one of steel grey on here.
would love to see Reflex silver, Carbon grey and maybe some more Steel grey all with 17's please?
any uploads or links would be hugely appreciated!

Thanks in advance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here's my Blue Graphite, which is on 17s.

My neighbour, who is a car freak, came over to admire it yesterday and said, "nice alloys!".

So there.

Carbon Gray






I did like the 5 door reflex silver one i first got to see in a dealers showroom with the 17s on i thought they worked well on the reflex silver. I nearly went for this combo myself.

I chickened out and went for silver, it hides the dirt the best and doesn't stick out like a sore thumb when parked up. My last Golf was Steel (United) Grey. That too was easy to look after and was discreet.
I love the look of the mk6 in red and white too, but in my very humble opinion both of these colours need the Shadow Monzas to contrast with their paint jobs.
Black looks lovely just after you clean it, for the other 99.9% of the time it looks dirty. My other car is black, my Dad's car is black and my sister has just ordered a black car. The two former just look like they need a wash all of the time, I told my sister she was daft ordering black and she told me to 'go away' or something vaguely similar.  :laugh:
