Ah man i know. Going to have to wait 2-3 weeks before can get them sorted now. I cant just put them on but want them mint :cool: yh i know you mean about scooby they are high maintenence. Was a sweet motor tho bet you miss the power.

Long time  :sad: hate having to wait but wait will be worth it  :wink:,exactly they are liked mine but it wasn't as good condition as pics i posted suggest plus it was overpriced tbh,cheers :afro: i did for a start but i'm not fussed about it now glad to have a vw back the mk3 makes up for it  :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin:

Ouch steep that  :cry: 

I'm not 100% sure tbh but i would say its more a wheel specialists job due to how a diamond finish is done  :undecided:

they do look awesome when mint as you say but anthratic grey would still look  :cool:
