    mk3.5 cabby wheel would be legal I think, its plug and play and has an airbag, approved for essentially the same car. I doubt an assessor would pick it as not from a mk3. That being said - nobody buy one as I need it!!



    these 2 from tsw are kinda nice



    or a bit more oem

    Yeah i get what your saying, def go the MK 3.5 cabby wheel. I was referring to a boss kit and momo wheel as something you couldn't use as it doesn't have an airbag. As for rims, i like the oem looking ones, would be awesome.

    You know what? I thought they were stock! But when Mr V came to look at my car he told me they were aftermarket, and that they are usually black. I will have a look again and see who makes them because it has a manufacturers name on them I think.

    You will wear out a lot of cutting pads as it will constantly clog the pad full of paint and to do any good you will have to keep replacing the pads.

    I would still try some prepsol as it might substantially reduce the amount of paint on the car and reduce the amount of cutting pads needed.

    after about 3 hours of hand rubbing with cloths and cutting compound, I achieved this.

    It sucked and I think prepsol needs to be tried!!

    Paintwork is ok underneath, i think it could be brought up alot with a quality wax etc

    haha sad but true! Arms are kinda tired! I did some research and supposedly acetone will take it off easier.
