Fab has the LED licence plate thing, check one of his other posts for photos. It looks good but I think a bit too bright as following behind they sorta take away from the awesome LED tails of the R!

That's what I thought too, guess you could tint them a little bit to reduce the brightness... not sure you really need to light up you your plates that much

Just a few new pic after a wash today...

Hey Fab_R, do you get rubbing at the front & rear on hard cornering?

No nat225 not at all.

The rims are now done. That looks perfect FAB. The rims you had on before suited hard.. But these look cover worthy.

My first 2 are my favorites. Couldn't decide out of the last 2..

**** it looks good now FAB.

Fab_R if u dont mind me asking, how much did the wheels+tyre combo set you back? Yours looks like a quality wheel, im considering not ordering the 18" Detroits on the GTI and trading in the 17" Denvers for a better looking 18" wheel. If you traded your original wheels in, did you get a fair trade value? Thanks

i've seen a brand new set of Denvers + Potenza RE050 sold for $1280 in eBay (melbourne seller),
a set with 1 week old Denvers and almost brand new Michelin Pilot Sport 3 for $1500 (this was a special case),
there's currently a Melb seller of a set with 350kms travel only, $1100 and no bites since last month.
also have seen a couple of sets, used between 300-3000kms, sold between $850 (with a kerb mark)-$1100.

it all depends if there's someone wanting it so much or not.

and here are pictures showing Detroits / Denvers on the same car:

No nat225 not at all.

interesting, they look quite aggressive
and nice match to the R.

I think that Fab_R is running 225's on them though (rather than 235) so that there is less chance of that rubbing occuring. If you ran 235's on them with that offset, you'd certainly get rubbing!
