Tigz™ Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 Dude that's looking ace, if it was me id stick with black rims. But with semi slicks. Cambridge rear lights would be a good change, with GTI lamps. Ride height is spot on IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottish_Sport_16V Posted June 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 Cheers for the input amigo funnly enough should be picking up some cambridge lights for it this weekend Just need to figure out the wiring sequence to put lupo lights back on.
