Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

I just think those wheels are a lot of work to keep clean, and I'm lazy when it comes to cleaning themOriginally posted by ktrianta View Post

OK, I have found the colour that I want to have my wheels painted.....
It is Shadow Chrome which is able to be varied in how dark it goes... It is, I believe a more expensive option than just painting as it is a 3 part process so I will see what the pricing is like... that will determine if and when I get it done...
The pic below shows the colour really well... it is on a M3 wheel but I think it will suit the Talladega wheels...

I'm debating what to do. I get the Roc next week (hopefully!!!), and plan on doing a bunch of mods right off the bat (ECU and DSG map, DP, CAI). I wanted to paint the wheels at the same time, but might have to wait for the bank balance to grow a bit
I'm actually growing fonder day by day on how the standard silvers look on the CW. I think they look real nice. I just hate more than anything pulling up next to the same exact car.
Maybe I should have gotten that pink Roc.....Scirocco R - Candy White / DSG / Panoramic Roof / RNS510

As a side note Rebecca, do you think you could take a close up shot of your rims sometime? I'd like to see what they look like in more detail, as that's pretty much the colour I was going for.Scirocco R - Candy White / DSG / Panoramic Roof / RNS510

The standard hyper silver looks wonderful... while it is clean and let me tell you... they are a right bitch to clean when you are fussy about them (did someone say Anal?).Originally posted by ktrianta View PostI'm debating what to do.

As for your mods, I would do the ECU remap first before the Downpipe and CAI.. depending on which tune you are going for there will be plenty of grunt to keep you happy...
In terms of pricing... I have just been quoted around $280 per wheel for 4 of them. The paint itself is expensive and it is a 3 stage paint process.
He said the only downside is that when you get scratches... and he did say WHEN not if... they show up as black for light ones and alloy for deeper ones.
I am going to go and see him next week to have a look at colours etc and get a firm price.
As she_dub said... it can be wrapped... talk to Carbon Demon

Yeah I already bought the DP and CAI (Milltek and VWR) so I'm going to do those as well. Tune will be HPA. I may consider doing the DSG tune later, but can get a deal if I do all at once. I know I will do it down the road, so might as well do it now.
I got quoted $250 a wheel, so seems right. At least if they're painted they're easier to fix!Scirocco R - Candy White / DSG / Panoramic Roof / RNS510

Will do! I would do it now for you, but it would just look weird if I was doing it in my work car park... and I don't need to draw more attention to myself than my bright blue car already does in the fleet of silver beamers...Originally posted by ktrianta View PostThankfully I also don't have the money to do that

It is only a matter of time before you curb them.. No matter how anal you are about itOriginally posted by Andych View Post
