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.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    Those borbets should be 16x7.5 et20 which is perfect. You can prob even put 5mm spacers at the rear to make it sit flush with the guards. Im going thru the same dilemma as you trying to find nice wheels for the mk3. As for the borbet t's, if u can get him lower then go for it. But atm if u can get brand new borbet t's from germany shipped for 1300, 1100 for gutter rashed ones isnt very tempting.

      Yeh, the whole idea is to try and get the wheels flush with the arches, cause at the moment the g60 arches at the front stick way out beyond the wheels and make it look odd. Yeh the Borbet T's are a it pricey for the gutter rash

              Matt, you have borbet A's, not borbet T's.

              they're talking about these wheels i think

                When i imported my borbet a's they cost me close to $1600 new, unfortunately 16" are just that bit more expensive. I wouldnt sell ur borbets matt, they look good on the caddy and u know it!

                  OK. Slapped down by you wheel whores!

                  I dont really need the caddy or the wheels though, I`ll probably rego the car and get rid of it soon.

                                For some reason, Im really craving the small bumpers look, maybe because it reminds me of the mk1 and its a little different. Anybody know how to change the panels and where to get the them, including the bumpers, I really want to try it since my big bumper at the moment is stuck on with cabble ties and really annoying when it wont stay on!!!

                                Heres are thread of some guy with g60 arches (which I now have) on a small bumper golf (without the front lip which ill want).



                                If the g60's look odd, might just leave em off and sell them (do'h) but ill try and make it work.
