      Lol, the foggies/reflectors aren't there because the car was in a prang lol... I've had to butcher both front and back bumpers a bit so they sit on straight Yeah just as soon as I get my lowered springs from Alex and put the semi-slicks on next week I'll take some pictures, it should be good.

      And considering my other MK3 was all show and no go I'd really like to do something different with this one.

        Another update, just put a deposit on a set of Bridgestone Potenza RE001's. I should be getting them tomorrow arvo. They were only $10 more per tire than the Falken "semi-slicks" (as some of you have been saying).

          what tire size will you be running? are you going to go for any stretch since these wheels will be more for show?

                Check back a page I've already made my decision, just thought people would be interested in how it would all turn out. I was just looking for some input in what to paint them that's all... Oh and thanks for the input, I think you've just answered your own question

                I'm going 205/50's I couldn't care less about stretch or whether or not the car conforms to the regular "norms" of VW styling at the moment, I really just want a reliable daily that I like and won't draw too much attention.

                  Haha we're talking about steelies here!

                  They look good all polished up Branko! Will the VR6 be seeing some track?
