Monza Shadows query?
« on: November 28, 2011, 12:05:08 pm »
Hi guys,

Want to get my damaged Monza's refurbed by WRC on here and made up like Shadows.

Are the inserts a matt or gloss finish and are the genuine ones all diamond cut?

Also, as my car is diamond black pearl will they actually look any good, as in, will the inserts compliment the car or be lost against the black (will search wheel thread now)?

IMO Shadows are far and away the best looking wheel on a Golf!

My inserts are more like a graphite grey colour. The Mark 6 I test drove the other day had black inserts. Were mine on my mk5 a special edition?

Nope!, your grey insert ones, are the standard Monza II. The shadow ( black inserts ) were brought out for the Mk 6 GTI.  :happy2:

Should n't  cost anymore to go from grey to black, its the diamond cutting that costs the money.
