NEARLY got the wheels on. Went to fit them Friday afternoon and realised all the flat stick-on wheel weight had melted off. Alloys have been sitting in my garage since June  :ashamed:

So, they're in getting balanced. Just got a new trolley jack today, don't trust the VW widow-makers. Wheels will be on on Monday…   …also picking up some shiny new painted parts Monday/Tuesday.  :wink: will show all next week.

P.S. Last night's purchase:



Sadly they're for W80ody on here for winter wheels.  :sad1:

Cheers Mr Dodds; I had a look through your photobucket - those monzas look in better condition than I had expected!

Hurry up and get the BBS's on; I shall have to get home from the middle east quickly to keep up with all your modding in the past few weeks

They look rubbish mate.........but rather than skip them I will buy them off you!!  :jumpmove:  :grin:

Are they genuine CH's or reps mate?

On a different note, I notice that on your 'to do list' you mention a remap!  Have a look at this offer from Shark Performance - http://briskoda.net/forums/topic/211017-crazy-summer-sale/ - I took advantage yesterday although I went for the self tuning system which was a further £150, if you are local £199 for a stage 1 is a BARGAIN!!!  :happy2:
