[DVR68U]

i think they are on the beetle aswell , i got these of a mk4.

[Jarred]

nice, looks cool with the black centres.

Although, matt silver could be nice too!

what engine mods have u done?


correction: what engine mods havent you done!!!

how is the handling with the extra weight?

[DVR68U]

havent had a chance to get it on the road yet, still saving up for engineers and rego. the vr6 has a chip and ill be porting the exhaust manifolds when i pull the engine out again to take the ac stuff off. should be good enough for now

The wheels look so much better silver.
I dont see the point in painting mags black. They all look the same then.
Car looks good, get some plates on it.

yeah i do agree that the gloss black looks abit jdm , just need a few more things fitted up then i can get a engineer to check it over. i would love a set of cordoba brakelines to tidy up my lines where i took my abs out. im also considering just welding in my hydro clutch lol

[DVR68U]

haha your one to talk , you got a set of cordoba brake lines laying round ?

[Mrk_Mickey]

Hahahahha, take that, and that, and that, and that. you guys are brutal!

There's plenty out there & I've used alot of different one's.

I've got a stahlewille one here which right up there. The Hazet one is top shelf bloody awesome,as it would be with a $1+K price tag!

There's ones like KC Tool's which are based & identical to the snap-on one's & are pretty good value.

My recommendation is to by a roll of brake pipe (3/16?) & just practise on your flaring & bending skill's.

Once you work out how it all work's properly, it doesn't really matter what tool you use, as long it it is good working condition.

[DVR68U]

yeah ill have to see where i can get the kits from. where abouts you get your sets from ?
