xXChrissyXx Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 Hi everyone just want to introduce myself to the Lupo community, i have a 2000 1.0 Lupo in Black. Currently have BBS RS fitted with stretched tyres.BBS RSThey are 7" at the front and 8" at the backCurrently in the process of making it a show car, many things need done and need to get a cheap set of coilovers as i cant afford a new set due to the fact that i am a syudent and am paying ridiculous insurance atm.If anyone has any suggestions please comment or contact me. Thanks Here is the lupo as it sits atm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piers Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 As said above... dont think they are real wheels.. get it lower and it will look spot on.Like the colour of the wheels! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeA Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 The bolts, the proportions and the mesh pattern are all different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koop Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 If you're going to park on a slope take the pic on the lower side, it really isn't helping your arch gap issues Anyway, welcome, get it decked, etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xXChrissyXx Posted August 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Haha thanks for the replies everyone, yeah i shoulda got a coilover kit first but hey cant win them all. will be getting it decked when i have the monies And yes everyone is right they are only 'REPS' £550, stretched tyres and the deeper 8" at the rearI wish i had the money for the real ones but that wont happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeA Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 I don't have a problem with reps. I do have a problem with people who claim they're bbs when they really are not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xXChrissyXx Posted August 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Yes i know i shoulda put REPS on the first post, that was my mistake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete91 Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 I think joe's talking about the bbs caps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piers Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 I like the fact that you have not tried to make out they are real and that you are saving up for coilovers as you cant afford them yet... I like honest people like that.10/10 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piers Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 I think joe's talking about the bbs caps.but they wouldnt be BBS Reps if they werent there would they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xXChrissyXx Posted August 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Yeah i think your right Pete, any cap suggestions cause i would like to keep a badge on it but i dont want people saying that im trying to impersonate real BBS RS's Thanks Piers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeA Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 It's not the caps doting th and the wheels themselves look cool. It's labelling them as bbs rs in the first postz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
