I have been reading about this white worm, but I dont know wtf it is. Can someone tell me?

White worm is a layer of oxidisation that gets under the laquer and creates a line that slowly works its way inwards between the metal and laquer creating a milky wavy line that looks a bit like a worm has dug it's way in!

Got mine from ebay, in fact I have one spare as I bought one for the Mk4 but I dont think I will put it on that as there is no other red to match it too unlike on the mk5

yes they pop up on ebay from time to time

it's not an original one and is slightly smaller but was only about £5 inc postage

the original ones come with a rabbit, i believe an American part usually about £40

im not keen on black rims, but have to say that red on the tyre rim really does set those wheels off!. Top Job there brian G  :smiley:
