Thanks for that JPC and Greenouse! I'll invest in some!


 :nerd:



Use one of these and it goes on a dream  :wink:

Looks perfect for the job! Will order one now!

I've previously used the side of a small sponge, which probably works the same, but is useful to have a 'dedicated tool' for the job!!!!!  :smiley:

^ What's particularly great (apart from suiting the black car) is the black 'inserts' on the Monza's make them look bigger.

Cheers Hurdy  :happy2:

Robin, after seeing them on the MK6 and the guy that was introducing it mentioned the black inserts were designed to do just that, I couldn't get them out of my head and needed to have some on my car (even though I had just recently purchased new wheels  :ashamed:).

I am really pleased with them and will be reluctant to put the black huffs back on in the Spring............

....Aren't you putting the cart before the horse? :confused:

- Winter wheels:
Black Huffs because they have no potential white worm issues and it's much more likely to happen in Winter.
 
- Summer wheels:
Diamond-cut Monzas with black inserts to show themselves off much better on sunny days and in photos.

But what will you do for Spring and Autumn? :evilgrin:

Winter wheels were 19'' Gallardo's that now reside on Flora's car, so plans have gone slightly amiss  :innocent:

What can I say, If I see something I get it!!  :evilgrin:
