Your car looks really good. The only thing I don't like is the black wheels, but it would be a dull world if we all liked the same things!

If I were you, I'd get the brake calipers powder coated silver to match the bodywork and grille stripe. That would tie it in very nicely  :happy2:

I wasn't overly keen with the detroits at first - so much so that i bought a set of VZ's then a set of Pescaras. Now i've pretty much styled the car around them. They grow on you after a while! I was worried that they would make the car look chav - hopefully it doesn't!

Will be getting the calipers sorted very soon and bang the pescaras on for winter :)

Was your car at VWNW, near the adventure playground?

Well funnily enough I had a good look at it. I'd always been keen on Detroits but had only seen them in photos, so yours was the first car I'd seen in the flesh with them on. A few weeks later, courtesy of Nathan, I had a pair in my possession. I absolutely love them, they look so so much better in real life than any photo seems to portray. So, cheers!

who did the painting Holty???

Hey Gaz,

Got it painted at Kandy Paint Shop just off Manchester Rd - if you spot the sign for 'Taskers Nightclub' and go through the archway you will spot it. Ping us a PM if you need better directions  :happy2:

I know where you mean thanx Holty

The polished bead around the wheels goes perfectly with the matt black faces and front end. Spot on  :happy2:
