***Stolen Wheels***
« on: 21 March 2014, 17:03 »
Just incase you lot don't pop into the VW Chat section or Dub Rides I'll stick this in here as well:

My CHs were stolen from my back garden last night. If anyone sees or hears of a set going please get in touch with me or South Yorkshire police quoting crime reference: C/27232/2014

Full specs:

-18"x8" all round
-ET35
-5x100
-All four fitted with almost new Nankang NS20 205/35/18
-Just had a dodgy refurb so should be easy to spot



Areas to look for due to poor refurb:

Bloody hell. Surely someone knows something!

Almost all of Darkside's stuff was custom made and branded, I'll be amazed if they don't get it back eventually, full list of what was taken:

Darkside Custom Tubular Manifold with Wastegate Takeoff
Blue Emusa Waste Gate (Similar to Tial)
3" Short Upwards Exhaust and 1.5" screamer pipe that exit through bonnet
Garrett GTB1749V Turbo
Holset HX35w Turbo
2 x Darkside Universal Intercoolers with Custom Alloy pipe work (Darkside Logos on Intercoolers and Silicones)
FASS Fuel Lift Pump with custom aluminium fuel tank
Sparco Pro ADV Bucket Seat
OMP Deep Steering Wheel

I'm not holding out any hope of getting them back, but cheers :afro:

really? I was down at darkside last weekend. I doubt stuff like that will be retrieved,  doesnt sound like an opportunistic job so the thieves probabaly arent daft enough to try and sell them to anyone.
