Wheels..
« on: 05 August 2012, 12:59 »
Hi all, I am in 2 minds what to do with my monza's as they are not in a good way.
The choices at the moment as I don't want to spend a lot are..
I have a friend who can refurb them using paint and make them nice and shiny, or I have seen these on eBay, but I cannot seem to find and pics on google of them on a red mk5..



I only want to spend about £350 with tyres on so am a bit stuck!!

How much are the BBS? Are they original?

Refurbing the Monzas is bound to be cheaper than the BBS if they are genuine. And if they're reps, you'd be better off with refurbing the monzas.

Seems to suggest only one winner???

They are originals, and I can't get them for £300. They have been repaired as they had a crack in one..

Think I will go for the refurb, and get a Decat for less money combined!! :-)

+1, are you going for the original colour/finish or Monza Shadow?  :cool:
Current: GTI Edition 35 Candy White 5dr DSG 19" Glendale, RCD510+DAB, Dynaudio, Storage Pack, Parking Sensors

Gone: Edition 35, GTI Mk6, Edition 30, GTI Mk4, GTI Mk3, GTI Mk2 and my favourite the UR quattro
For those that dont know DSG is an electronically controlled dual-clutch multiple-shaft manual gearbox

Not going for diamond cut, but are going to be a mix of Volvo titanium grey and silver.. With lots of polish on top.
