UPDATED PICS ON PAGE 3!!!!


Got a few piccies today, so got a bit to go, waitin on some wolfsburd edition centres to arrive, also still lookin for some standard head lights and plain grille...and will be smoothing the front bumper soon!
Whatcha think

 

[Brummy]

seriously lovin' them rims!!!
how comes you wanna go for the standard lights and grill set up?.. i *may* be interested in doing a deal with ya..

 

[Dave_R]

I like that a lot, lower it a bit more on the front if you got coilovers.

Good effect mate, I really do like it!

yeah it son coilovers mate, im gonna lower it a bit more, only got them on today stil got some bits to do.

 

[Dave_R]

Wait a week or two for them to settle then, I noticed that mine dropped a bit afta two weeks and had to lift the front a little bit.

 

[james_mk]

meh - il do it tomorow, its been on coilovers for ages, the rims i had on before them were a similar size anyway so it wont need to bed in much.

 

[jenk]

just been linked to this on edition38, very sweet

how wide are the rims on the back mate, im planin to go 8"

 

[kevcupra]

i really like this! i want to get a euro look with my kiwi yellow GTi,
how big are ya rims?

 

[james_mk]

theyre 16inch and the width is 7.5 j, and theyre on 195/45s.
You can get 8's on the back jenk it just means you probably need arch work to have it as low as mine, i put 15mm spacers on the back but had to take them off as it was rubbin so bad, so you might possibly get away with 8".

 

[kevcupra]

cool im thinking going 15'' chromes and lower it much as pos then get smoothing it,

 

[james_mk]

chromes, for a euro style? what sort.....

 

[kevcupra]

not sure yet been lookin about and seems thats what they do!! lol im all new to this so any advice be good!

 

[james_mk]

not so much chromed, the euro look, ie my rims are Mirror polished, you have to have them done by a polisher although you can buy some rims that are pretty well polished. Try this website mate http://www.dubmeister.co.uk/
theres plenty of nice german style rims there, you can also get ya german plate there aswell, thats next on my list.

 

[jenk]

picked up my plates last week, gota have an E on for Espania

are your tires slighty stretched then

 

[james_mk]

yeah theyre slightly streched, next time i change il try get some 175's on. I was thinkin of that for a plate...but can you get pressed spanish plates online, the german pressed ones look pretty cool. Wil get some this week...mmm maybe spanish...

 

[jenk]

yep there pressed ones just specify an E instead of a D when you order them, got mine at ultimate dubs the other week think it was dubmeister.
u gota get spanish!!

175's mega stretched. not planing on going round bends then.

 

[james_mk]

who needs to go round bends? ive been checking on dubmesiter yeah, maybe ill ask for an E. £40 for two plates tho...think im gonna get the short ones, as i was thinking of smoothin the number plate recess at the front..hmmm thinks

 

[jenk]

im thinking if smoothing the recess , theres on on cleaned.be that looks the dangles. but then theres the problem of were the plate goes

got mine for £30, show price. bargain then. get the E god damm it

 

[james_mk]

okokok so when you order you just say can you stick an E instead of D?
about the recess...i was thinking put the numberplate below...possibly a bracket on the bit abover the splitter, thats why id want a shorter/smaller numberplate.
Ill check that website, which section is it? link me link me.
