Looked into buying this but you got there before me congratulations mate, got another one coming Tuesday different blue though :/

Seeing as you got the other rims in refurb, a y chance you will be flogging the edition 30s when there finished?

Its just a way of life.

Have PM'ed you Forrest.

Got myself wound up (excuse the pun) and convinced myself I needed coilovers as I thought the front of my car was higher than the rear and that the rear at one side was significantly higher than the other. So been a bit anal and gone and parked somewhere reasonably flat and measured the distance from the ground to the middle of the arch through the center of each wheel.

Passenger Front - 646mm
Driver Front - 643mm
Passenger Rear - 650mm
Driver Rear - 648mm

Don't think that is too bad considering the ground wasn't totally flat and puts my mine at ease. Decided to park facing downhill outside my house from now on so the front looks lower.  :laugh:

Got some rubber front floor mats today I quite like them and might get the back too although they do look a bit industrial.

And now for something a bit more exciting than rubber floor mats............my new wheels. BBS Speedline 2 piece splits freshly powder coated Porsche silver centers and chrome silver lips and barrels.

Nice looking GTI , Laser Blue is a great colour and VW were stupid to can it after such a short time. It also looks like the Laser Blue we saw on the MK7 GTI at the Paris show isnt coming to the UK either , so it will continue to be rare!.
