Are these alloys factory finish?
« on: 04 November 2009, 15:45 »
Some pictures of the GTi that I picked up last week. The 18" alloys seem to be a similar design to Monzas but are finished in a dark grey. The finish seems to be good enough to be from the factory but I haven't seen any other GTi's with them on.

What do you think?

That didn't work very well!

The 'idiots' guide to new postings obviously wasn't set at a low enough level for me.

Can somebody give me an easier way of uploading my photos please?

They look like stock Monzas? that have had a quick refurb to me.
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.

^^^^
Post us a close-up pic - We'll soon be able to tell.

I can't see any diamond-cut finish in your pics and they look (at a distance) all powdercoated (like my Monza's)
