    Hi Guys,

    Ok had the car for 5 days now and absolutely love it! A lot of car for the money.

    Where do you guys purchase your engine oil filters and sump plug washers from VW? Im guessing its the same part number Skoda/VW????

    In the meantime,here is a few pics from the white wagon at the car show last year.

    It shows how nice the black wheels can look.

    Tigger,

    No mods yet still stock, thanks for the pics, yes my wheels will be black as pictured and dropped tinted etc. Hopefully all will be done in the next month or so just a bit busy at the moment, just cant have car off the road for a week while wheels are being done.

    I agree black roof rails will just finish it off nicely, haven't looked closely yet but can they be removed from the car to be coloured or wrapped????

    Those black rims at the motor show really were the goods.
    A gloss black with metallic... I wanted to buy them on the spot.

    Would not have upgraded rims had mine come with those. *wow*

    Yes they can, and swapping is an easier option if you can find someone to swap with

    See how to in this thread: Removing Roof Rails

    I've carbon wrapped my roof rails, looks a lot better (up market) than a plain black finish
