love it, looks well mean!!!

just need to lighten up some of the photos so we can see the car more

[DubSteve]

Nice I like something different for a change!

[SiLe-R]

Nice ride

Spotted you in the city the other day with [M7] plates??

Also more red decals round the front and a black badge on the grill maybe?

Looked really good otherwise, the black wheels make such a difference, at a margin of the cost of a new set.

Cool GTIs! Any close-up of the grille? It's refreshing to see changes like these!

nah mate thats not me... his is a two door and has red striping around the fogs etc... but does look similar from a distance...

thanks everyone for the feedback... here is a pics close up on the front section as requested and also a bonus shot LOL...



valve caps.. heheh

[KWICKS]

I like the valve caps, seat colour and the ride height for appearances.

I don't like the wheels and badge, and I especially don't like the gun stickers on the front (but they may offer excellent stone chip protection perhaps?).

But good on you for customising it and making it truly yours.

I love it mate, I looked around on golfmkv for it and found these exact photos.


what is plasti dipped btw, a coating you can apply?

[byza]

plasti dip is in a spray can and it a rubber based paint... basically you can paint a surface and if you want to remove it, you can just peel it off... so for my wheels, when i am over the wheels i can just grab and edge and pull it off... same goes with the badges...

it really is awesome stuff.. matt finish and is full reversable...

How much does this plasti spray on stuff cost to cover all 4 wheels? Is it durable against stones, how long does it last?

That is wicked!

How much and where from?

[byza]

Plasti dip is truly awesome... comes in different colours as well!!!!

for a set of wheels i worked on basically a can per wheel but bought 1 extra to be safe... only prep needed is cleaning and degreaser and then paint away.. if you really lazy, you dont even have to mask the tires as it peels off LOL...

i have had it on for about 4 months and there is only a slight nick in one which was done by the dealership but didnt scratch the alloy (it would have if they werent coated!!).. only bad thing is the wheel go sort of a brownish black when lots of brake dust in on them so basically car need to be cleaned.. so yes not chips or anything to be worried about and that also applies to the front badge.. no chips at all and when you see my bonnet, its cover in stone chips.. very depressing..

you can buy it from TJM 4wd stores.. its quite hard to get sometimes but they will order it for you... i think it was about $30 a can or something... very cheap and reversable...

well now you all know my secret so i better now get some rims because everyone will have black wheels and badges LOL...

[AusScare]

Sounds good, how long ago did you apply it to your wheels? Has any of it come off?

Is washing the same, or can't you use chemicals or harsh brushes on it?

Is this the stuff? http://www.plastidip.net.au/index.ph...875515625-6910

It says: PLASTI DIP® is flexible and won’t crack, chip, peel or become brittle, insulates from electric shock, vibration and heat.

Unless you forcefully peel it off?
