Edition 30 Rear Bumper Removal

[Greenouse]

There was someone. I tried running a search but not much came up.

Didnt he get a replacement set of Monza's too?

Not sure Mike, I just remember them looking a little white in the pics he posted.............. It's probably a casualty of the server failure

Bloddy server.

I will look harder

I've already had mine replaced fully once, these have also gone rusty 

That old saying, if you want something doing properly, do it yourself.....

I'll order some of that heat proof spray and give it a go.

^^ I think that's the only answer as VW do not seem to have changed the part to items that don't rust so badly, so quickly      Not good really for a 20k + car VW!!

Ok paint ordered, just trying to find how to get them off now.

....True! But I don't think I'll be repainting my Monza II's though!

Let us know how you get on (although personally I went OTT and changed the bells by getting an AP Racing Big Brake kit).

What colour are you doing your bells?

I'm going to keep them original silver, almost the same colour as the standard wheels. Rather than silver/rust coloured which looks awful with such open wheels.

I dont want to really go down the replacement brake road as I generally trade my cars in when they get 2 years old, and find the GTI brakes fine to be honest. Yours look good though RR, no rust issues there eh?!

Was me , yes i had my bells done under warranty by my local dealers F.o.c, they were Grey and not white as the pic makes them, and didnt flake or anything in the time i had the Grey GTi (3 weeks) although My laser Blue GTi was also done F.o.c and lasted a year with no probs at all.


Phylis's Bells were already painted Red, im gonna re-do mine and also do the edges of the brake discs in red cus i think it will look good, without going OTT.

Ah Phil, any guides how to do it or get them off etc. Looking good there mate.

Oh and can you post a pic of them in red on Phylis, I'm not convinced which colour to use now lol!

[Phil mcavity]

I gave mine to the dealer to do, sorry mate, thats all i know.
