I've tried taking pics of the VALEO LED's but I'm crap at photography and they always look yellow or orange for some reason.

Not my car car but a video the same VALEO lights.....

Thanks for this thread. Been searching everywhere to see if the BBS CO wheels would clear my Boxster brakes without the need of spacers.

^^^^ My wheels are BBS VZ's not the CO's and are 18"x8" ET44. If your wheels are the same width and very similar offset you'll be fine.

Over here in North America the VZ's are called CO's. Exact same specs, dimensions, stamped VZ, even the cartons they come in say VZ033 but for some reason every distributor and even BBS USA calls them CO's. Go figure :stupid:

Can't wait to get them mounted!

Hi MC71

Can I get a list of what parts needed to do the Golf MK6 MFSW swap? Current GTI steering paddle shift and horn isn't working already. So I was thinking why not swap. Hope you can help me out here.

I wasn't overly keen on its Audi OEM appearance so I gave it a make over. First I removed the Audi rings then filled the gap with several layers of Isopon flexible bumper filler, a lot of sanding then 2 coats of plastic primer, more sanding between the coats, then 2 coats of Matt Black and/or Gloss Black with more sanding in between. Put it all back together, added a VW Motorsport badge and et viola!

One modified cover.....



Got mine today and after a quick glance I'm a little unsure on how is best to get the Audi rings off... It would be greatly apprenticed if you could enlighten me on what you did :party:

IIRC it just pulls (or can be cut) off, it's attached in just a couple of places.  :happy2:
