    Love that wheels! A little bit too heavy with the chrome for my liking. The fog surround is good though.

    How's the ride with the 19 inch wheelies?

      Hi mate, I never know when to stop with the chrome. The ride is surprisingly good considering the stiffened sport suspension. The low profile tyres are definitely the way to go!

        If it was me, I would blacken the front grill inc. VW logo for the chrome you've added under the grill to stand out. Maybe it's just the no. plate that disturbers that. But the main thing is that, you like the look and you're happy with it. I like the chrome mirror caps.

          Cheers mate. I have just bought a new set of number plates from demonplates which are totally plain. The lettering is glossy black gel which will hopefully make the front end look good. Its in this style: http://www.demonplates.com/img/sn-lg-domed-text.jpg

            Do you know if there are any pics of someone who has painted the grill and badge black online?

                Prob would look good with the grill I have installed but I'm a sucker for chrome as you can see from my pics. I looked at the album and it seems that 'Team_v's Tig' has also installed the black hella headlights and tail lights. The only problem I see with this is the astronomical cost! I would love to if I could tho.

                  That's alright, it's good to have own style. Like the wheels?

                    The wheels are fantastic, I like the gunmetal colour. When ordering the tiguan I wanted the savannah wheel in the two tone anthracite finish but the showroom said they were not available! Its a shame but the brilliant silver ones look cool too.

                      Yeah would have looked good with the 2 tone savannahs. i like the fog light surrounds, did you do that yourself or buy them?

                      Were you forced to get the flared guards at the time you bought the car?

                        Wheel arches

                        Hi mate, I purchased the fog light bezels from ebay and fitted them myself using automotive glue.
                        I really wanted the wheel arch extensions because they make the car look much sportier and butch. I didn't have to pay for the wheel extensions as they had to be fitted for the wheels to be legal in the UK.
                        So all in all, a good job!
