i thought to my self today i want to go a little different for polo show and no rice so i got to work. i also own a mk1 golf GTI and decided i would use the rims from that they are called turantula'a i believe thier nick name is they look like this:

(smudge on phone camera sorry)

so i took them off the golf

sanded them down and cleaned 2 of them

then gave them a grey primer

then a base of flouresent yellow

comparison

and then a clear coat

put them up against the car and they look crazy, will do them all and have them on for no-rice next week

they are very good cars, very likely to be rusty unless they are restored. so if your after a GTI make sure you have a proper look around it. but as far as a 1.1 goes there still well built cars dont knwo how much they go for. have a read on the mk1 owners website and it gives you a price guide somewhere. Yes mine was at edition.

they look awsome those do, very different from the norm! I like the over-spray on the paving haha, very pikey love it

think that colour would only really go well on a wheel with no dish for some reason butthey came out alot better than i expected.

lol, you'll never lose your car again!

Did something similar to my mk2 golf early on this year...driver stellies with a black lip and neon yellow centres.

Bright wheels for the win. :) This is my loop:

looking good mate, good luck with the mk1 project, wish someone would give me a mk1 for free lol

Looks awesome man. Like it lots.

Very different, will be good to see how well it works when you've got them on

They look cool, what splitter have you got on that mate?

mk2 golf cl by the looks of things
