Question about Black 17" Monzas - were they standard?
« on: June 25, 2012, 01:01:32 pm »
Hi there,

Newbie currently considering a MK5 GTi - I've seen one with Black 17" Monza's, they look great but i'm pretty fussy about things being completely standard - I realise they may have been sprayed either way but were they available in black from the factory?

Cheers in advance,
Andy

They are labelled in the advert as Graphite Grey, not sure if this makes a difference?

Cheers Andrew, appreciate your response.

Pretty common change to make I take it as I've seen a few around with them.

They've never done black 17" Monzas, just black 18" Monza 2s. As you said, these came on the Ed 30, or as an option wheel over here.
