If you had them painted could you pleses tell me the coulor name and code if any.

No its not factory colour, had them painted by a friend of mine. Dont know the colour code, but I do know it was some kind of antracite with very very small pearls in it (they are sold now and the new owner wreched them in a week, so I cant take any better pictures)

Woah you sold them?

They look awesome and would suit a nice white candy as well, might do some photoshopping and see what it looks like. Any thing else done to the car?

True and there are some little towns that were established just inland from the road for these servicemen. Some of them have been abandoned over the years as populations fell and shifted (one near Timboon / Port Campbell springs to mind)

What exactly happened? Were they just scraped or have they been cracked?

Ordered the APR CAI for the Polo GTI.

Will have it fitted on the 11th July when I get my car retuned as well.

Got some new shoes for the front.

Hit a poorly laid temporary road plate and badly compromised the sidewall of the driver side front. Of course there are no Dunlop SP Sport in the country so I decided to give the Bridgestone RE002 a go.

yes the set was very nice indeed, but after buying my 4th set of wheels for the car (the porsche replica's posted a few pages back) I began running out of storage space so I put 2 sets online and the denvers were the sold almost the same day.. It was sad to see them leave but it was for the greater cause

It was even worse to get a photo the next week from the new owner, turned out his 1.2 tdi bluemotion was too much power for him (

) He hit a curb and 1 cracked, and 1 has very very deep scratches all over the survace area. If I knew this was going to happen I would have kept them..

I warned him 3 times

Other things done 'worth' noting are in my sig

Man bad luck hey, sounds like you could have been better off wih them but must say its probably worse off for him.

Might take a squiz at your Porsche rims..lol
