scotty_82 Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 Leave the wheels the colour they are and just lower it, i think it would work just the way they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macaloon Posted September 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 I'm think either leaving them or gloss black with a red lip or all red but I'm not sure yetnah pic's got some new wheels!I'm not goin for the euro look really trying to keep it quite oem n subtleI think my next mod will be getting my backbumper sprayed and vw accessory spoiler put onthen coilies..... But maybe il get coilies sooner.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macaloon Posted October 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 UPDATE: Ive had a fresh rear bumper fitted and sprayed as i wasnt happy with the old one as it had a few dints and scratches in the painted section and chips in the lower plastic from the previous owner. Ive also added some Dubmeister Legal pressed plates with ABT Wolfsburg surrounds and finally ive de-wipered the rear, who needs a rear wiper in the winter.........coilovers are coming this month when i decide on which ones i want and i also have a rear spoiler on order opinions?

macaloon Posted October 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 i think so far im edging towards gloss black with a colour coded red lip or just all gloss black ive consider getting them mirror polished aswellTBH im really struggling to make a decision.......i might photoshop a couple of ideas up and see what i think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HAIRBear Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 there been quite a lot of wheels done like that - very similar ones aswel and in my most honest opinion they just never look...right, or look...wow. but hey (here comes over used phrase of the century lol)....it your car do what you want Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
