Yeah I know there a few little bits like that around the car aswell as small car park dings which really bug me and let the car down but I think that rust on the grill rail has been there for ages because I remember seeing it when Dan had it!

I'm trying to find some time to get it into the workshop but atm there are no slots because were jam packed :-(:thumbsdown:

Yep wheels still suit it perfectly, what do you think to them being sprayed black or chromed? 8-)

difficult to say about the wheels being a different colour

cos the colour they are at the min suits em well...i cant imagine any other colour

maybes you need a photoshop lol

Doesn't the silly colour badge annoy you? And what happened to your new wheels?

Nope not really just a change from the norm i suppose. But i've still got the debadged grill, red GT badge and clear indi's & side repeaters so don't worry I can always change as and when I get bored :thumbsup:

And I ran the car for about a month with the BBS's on but it meant that I hit everything in the way into work becasue our yard is shite and has potholes everywhere :x

Neil do you have photoshop? If so could you please do me some colour changes. Cheers

i dont have potato chop no

PM walshy he's got it, and he's pretty good lol

Lol, you mean you were too low? Imagine what it was like when i had the 13"s on. Have you got any pic's of it with the bbs on? And what happened with the other wheels you brought?

Well yeah probably a bit too low, but i never scraped on anything apart from at work when I had the 14's on it was fine over speed bumps and getting up kerbs

I'll have to upload the pics in a bit. What other wheels I only bought the BBS's?

i thought you were picking up some turbines?

Actually the Red badge is back on and it does look better, but the orange indi's are staying on! Otherwise it'll just look like it did when I bought it. Oh yeah it is is need of a good clean so i'll make the effort for No-Rice as it comes up a right treat with a little effort and a soapy sponge 8-)

I haven't really made my mind up on the Turbines yet, can't decide if they'd be well suited or not?

Although i'm quite interested in getting some Steffan BCW's but only when funds allow as things are a bit tight at the mo :-(:thumbsdown: and I have been looking at other purchases :?:roll:

Yeah well the tyres well probably have to be changed when the MOT time rolls around as there is a bit of wearing to them so i'll hold out until then. And tbh it only has one new car park ding since Stuey had it and that was down to some idiot hitting it the day before I bough it from Dan so it isn't exactly being poorly looked after

They will all be taken care of once I manage to squeeze some workshop time from my boss, things are too busy at present to even risk mentioning working on my car :tear::thumbsdown:

hahaa.

i just wanna see you do something fresh with it!

i cant say to much as i STILL cant afford a H&R cup kit for my polo.

Roly, she needs the ghetto presence of this look, with different wheels...:

Found a rolling shot from the No-Rice convoy to GTi Fest last week. Not much has changed except I put the debadged grill and Red GT badge back on, all else that has been going on is keeping it maintained & replacing broken parts :x so unfortunately not much of an update.
