the real thing mate, bought from a firm who deals with the Italian sports cars. Initially I asked about second hand, but he told me that he also dealt with the lambo factory direct. So after a bit of thought and weighing up how long it would take to curb them I went for it.

ahh, what make are they then

I don't know mate, whoever makes them for the lambo gallardo. I ordered 4 front wheels as the rears are no use, they're too wide

I would think so, i think the floor pans are the same, its the size of the seat and interior around them. I don't know what they look like. Are they bigger than the big R32 and S3 seats?

....I've always thought that those Lambo alloys remind me of our Monzas! If you compare them you'll see how the big 'round holes' are similar. I think yours suit the GTI extremely well. :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: - Very Cool Mod!

the lambo wheels do look superb, but £550 a wheel ouch. Plus, is it just the pics, or are they curbed??

If it is the latter, I would have cried when it happened

I prefer the original gti seats, i think those s line seats don't look sporty at all!
Why didn't you go down the releather look that would of made the seats much more desirable than buying some s line seats... for me it seems like you are taking away the sport seats and replacing them with normal seats.
