Acquired a set of OEM VW Imola alloys for putting my winter tyres on, they just fit over 312mm brakes with a few mm's to spare. £50 all in! :happy2:

I do indeed. Going to powdercoat the wheels, using Pentland Powdercoating http://www.pentlandpowdercoating.co.uk
If you go there ask for Peter and tell him Sandy Dodds referred you (you should get a good deal).

Also near Loanhead, Pro Tint is a very good and well priced tinting company. There run by Autohaus Edinburgh, Audi Specialist in the unit next door. Mention my name there also to see if you'll get a deal. :happy2:

Sorry, I meant for painting the bits I've bought.  I used starlite coating at mayfield ind units before for powder coating.  He done quite a good job.

Ah I see, my bad. Haven't heard of Starlite yet. Pentland is one of my work's subcontractors. I use a wee local garage in Loanhead called Springfield Motors. Mention me (again!) and he should quote you happy. ;)

I'm keen to meet up with Brad Gill though. As he's a fellow member and mk5 owner. Will let you know when I do.

I'm ashamed to say that I washed and polished it for the first time since we bought it (almost two months!)

Have been wanting to do it for ages just haven't had the time!

Sportlines are comfy for a low spring drop ;p
Did you order WALK or bushings for other points?
