    They look smaller than my 18's! They look sweet btw. Time to drop a few inches closer to the ground?

    The stepped lip does make it look small.
    In fact almost anything in 19" still looks small due to the 45 profile sidewall tyre.

    I wouldn't want to go anything over that though as it would get very bumpy.
    Not worth the look for the loss of drivability.


    On the up side, the light weight wheels reduce the bumpyness transfer into the body of the car and the handling/acceleration/braking are much crisper now.

    Clay,

    Looks really, really good! And only a bonus that you drop so much weight!

    I do, however, think you should leave the black grill, and paint the Enkeis the same shadow chrome as you had before, because that colour scheme was dead set hot as hell.

    Thanks for the kind words Drew.
    Looking at options for the wheels now.

    Could get them vinyl wrapped to save money and maket them easier to clean
    Otherwise I can get them painted or leave them as is.

    I do like the grey/black and blue look though.

    Not to sure about those tail lights.

    Maybe back to the OEM ones.

    A silver VW badge should fix up the front.

    New wheels looks awsome!

    Getting some quotes for wheel colouring now.
    Just had to check that there weren't any embossed details i wanted a different colour (turns out the enkei detailing on the lip is just a sticker......)

    Might switch the OEM lights back in the rear for a change.

    Got a lot to do and not much time.
    And i am getting grilled by the chief finance officer about new wheels haha.

    Work gave me the nickname "Pauly" (from Fat Pizza tv show) due to my infatuation with anything automotive haha.

    Hi team v

    Your car looks great!

    A quick question if I may... What were your thoughts on the apr exhaust? Did you find that it's become too much of an attractant to boy racers? I enjoy being a bit of a sleeper
    Btw you don't happen to have a sound clip of the exhaust?

    I've had cars with loud exhausts and now I'm over 30... Really not keen on something too loud... It's got to add performance above all .

    Have you thought of going k04? Apr sale....
