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,

  • Power Coating = stronger and therefore will likely last longer. That doesn't mean paint won't last though.

    Painting = better finish and will look better.

    I have had wheels painted and then clear coated before... And I would do it again.

          Have they kept the perimeter of the wheel silver while greying out the middle? Highlights things very nicely indeed. I think that's why the blacked out wheels of the car in the snow (some 10-15 postings prior) looks so good ... the white snow is actually serving to contrast against the black in the picture.

          I see in the other pics that they've also blacked out much of the chrome trim (roof rails, sills, etc) ... how is this achieved? Some sort of plasti-dip do you think?

                            • Looks the goods but needs some tyre/guard dressing as they look brown and thus detract from the look of the car.

                              Never realised before but the brakes on the back look tiny :|

                              • yeah, it was spur of the moment because ppl were asking for shots of the wheels. The car is filthy.
                                As to the brakes being tiny? I think you're gonna be mighty disapointed with the Tiguan then !
