Sorted Out My Wheels Finally!!
« on: 24 April 2006, 13:00 »
Hello  :smiley:

Finally sorted out my wheels after taking forever to decide!!  :rolleyes:

Right gone for something unique that im pretty sure no one else will have, which i like. Kept the original wheels which are MIMs and had them refurbed. See pics below. Gloss black deep dish with polished lip.  :shocked: What you lot think?

Before


After


They are a bit dirty so don't think that is the final finish.

Cheers matey!

Cost me £200 and im really happy with how they came out.  :smiley: The chap put so much hard work into them because the rim was so badly rotted in places because of the winter salt and they came out a treat. Much more original than the ronal turbos i was going for.

Hummm.... who told you they were MIMs...  :undecided: :wink: :grin:

They are mint wheels, and very hard to get hold of. I would keep them for as long as possible mate, as they look mint and sit well on the motor.  :cool: :cool:

Thanks guys!  :smiley:

Finish the car off perfectly.

Slick - Don't worry matey they aren't going anywhere. It's nice to have something different from everyone else on the car. Makes the car unique in it's own way.

As for the sunstrip i'm finding it very hard to part with. All my cars have always had them and i now can't drive without one  :undecided: Might change to one the same colour as the car. Got the idea from here:- http://www.vw-cup.co.uk/index.htm
