White golf with black wheels and roof who is it?
« on: December 13, 2010, 07:11:49 pm »
Hi guys

I fancied changing the colour of my edition 30 wheels when i get them refurbished and going for black wheels while colouring the roof black too.  I just notice someone on the main site picture has this already and I wanted to know who it was.

I wanted to know if the roof was repainted or if it's just a vinyl wrap.

Also how easy is it to get the ed30 wheels back to The factory grey colour?

Cheers

Rich

Nice one cheers i'm just having a look through the thread now.

Did you manage to get a wrap the same colour as the wheels or is that a standard black wrap colour and have you had any problems with it?

I took the car to raccoon in Leeds and put a sheet up against the front grill to match the black on it. Nice and easy

Great idea I'll have to try that when I find a local firm that does it.  If you don't mind me asking how much did it cost?
