Are these the same as mine but pimped?  If so they look so different.

Don't think so, the only 'pimping' that I've done is have the inserts painted gloss black as the VW factory finish has a machined face to the wheel.

Just seen this, tidy wheels nathan  :happy2:, but dont hate me please, but i dont think it suits with the Wraps.

Perhaps back to your Ubber Black body work and they will look better.

 :ashamed:

Maybe Photoshop to see what it would look like?

They look the same to me, hence why I asked the same question earlier on.

I think they are, just a different finish, amazing how different they look.

Yup thats pretty much what I was eluding to earlier, they could well be the same and had a re-paint, or they could be reps?

Thanks for the feedback Steve but that's the reason I bought them as a contrast to the matte finish of the wrap!  :wink:

These 20-spoke-two-piece (from Audi A6, made by BBS and Speedline) look really great.
Unfortunately they are very heavy.
