Does anyone know where you can get these from brand new?

They are a VW made wheel and were and optional extra on the Mk4, I've tried www.autoalloyz.com but there site has been down all week.

there was a set on ebay but they went

I do need to change my sig, I used to have a Mk4 golf with the wheels and a few other extra but sold it a while back.

I've decided to come back to a Mk4 but want to make my new golf look just like my old one: Santa monicas/spoiler etc....

Cheers for the replys fella's

I think its going to be a case of getting some 2nd hand ones either OEM or Replica, I just cant fiind them brand new anywhere on Tinternet

Burna, if you can be bothered would be good to see a before and after pic of a refurbed wheel?

yeah mate i will do, im not doing them the standard colour, having them shot blasted then powder coated either anthracite or silver with gloss white where the little chrome studs go. sounds complicated i know.

runnin them all corroded and hangin' over winter unless i steal more old ladys handbags to fund them :evil: :grin:
