That's amazing! Wish i'd have seen them
He didnt have them for sale.. saw that he was thinkin about new alloys and I jumped at the chance! lol is £495 a good price for them?
Not gona put them on till I can sell the wheels currently on the car.. A few pics for anyone interested:
£495 seems a bit steep to me, i'd have looked at £350-400 but the fact you saw some going is good enough!
I'm guessing 210 is a bit of a bargain then! lol what could I expect to get for my own alloys?
You would have to be mental to pay £495 for some second hand wheels, I thought £210 was a fair price for them, glad your happy with them anyway mate

I think he'll have them for a while if he's lookin 4 that kind of money 4 them.. lol
210 is def a fair price mate. Cheers again.
I think it's the rarity that makes them worth more,m i'd say about £150 for yours with yres, i thought my vRS's were good for £160 but they're the 16" ones
Got a few nice bits to put on now eh! Should transform the car!
On the subject of wheels I'd say £210 without tyres is about right, after all the tyres for them are going to be the best part of £90 a corner if you're going for decent new rubber...
Don't I look a cheap skate now with my £62 Sport alloys (with tyres!)

Nice one Maverick the wheels will look great when fitted!
I thought your big mod was the rear lights

Looks like you got yourself a good deal on the wheels there Maverick! Very nice MK4
Loving the interior LED's, fancy putting some in mine?
Just noticed your from Newry, do you go to any of the cruises/meets in NI?

deffo got a few things to keep me going buddy! lol
I want to do a DIY refurb on the alloys before any rubber goes onto them... not sure on the colour I want though.. but deffo not black. I''m thinking gunmetal grey, White, Standard silver or Anthracite... hmmmm
You can always buy my alloys off me
Might be worth pointing out the ebay light is the darker red one that comes on facelift cars
I would have done it if it was my shade

Yea it is for the facelift lights.. Mine is so I was lucky enuff.. would be worth checking if they can get a pre-facelift light too?
Was told yesterday that I need 2 new tyres
so I was fast tracked to get my cupra wheels rubbered up today, picking them up later on. - didn't get to do a refurb on them, but I will do it during the summer i guess.. got most of the stuff to do it now.. just have to decide on a colour!
A quick pic update.. got the cupra wheels fitted a few days ago: (mum's Leon in the back there!)
And purchased a set of valve caps:
Just going to fit my 6000K HIDs now, easy job guys?
