Pirelli Edition GTI

[Wayne D]

Good stuff, glad you enjoyed it after making the trip. It is a great show and anyone considering it would not regret going. :)

[Rossimac]

I'll be heading to Dubshed for a wee look about. You going to be showing yours?

[Wayne D]

Yeah mate I've applied to get inside, entry closing date was 1st March. So no word back yet, not sure if that's a good thing or not. But if I don't get inside I'll take a run down on the Sunday and just display it outside.
Make sure and say hello if you see me or the car, I'm sure I'll be glad to see a friendly face and a fello MKV owner. :)

Ordered 4 new centre caps for my wheels on Saturday and collected them today. 



Had a bit of a job to convince the guy in parts that my car did have Genuine VW alloy wheels and that they were Genuine VW centre caps... Lol think he felt a bit stupid after they came up on his screen after he entered my chassis number...  clearly never heard of a Pirelli GTI then.
I'll fit them this weekend if the weather clears up for 5 minutes.

I need a couple of them, cost much?

[TaylorGTi]

  I soooooo need some but heard horror stories about how much they cost... How much you pay if you don't mind me asking?

[Wayne D]

No no problem at all, got them for £60 for all 4. Not cheap, but I was worried they might have been a lot more. Lol

They are almost to nice to put on the car to get all dirty.  I think I might get them a good coat or two of wax first.

[TaylorGTi]

Jezzzzzzzzzzz £60! Joys of owning pirellis eh ;)

They do look absolutely 

[Wayne D]

Lol yeah the joys indeed. :) oh meant to say, when the parts guy was picking my centre caps on the screen, he told me a replacement alloy wheel was....... £600 odd plus VAT!!! Lol how crazy is that. 

[TaylorGTi]

So about £700 inc vat... Holy cow! I had oppatunitii to pick a set up for £650.... Oh why oh why didn't i lol!

[Wayne D]

Yeah crazy money TaylorGTI.  I need to stay well away from the kerbs! 

Picked these up this morning. Bought them to fit during any shows I plan on attending throughout the year. I'll get a picture next weekend of them fitted along with the centre caps.

Bit of a spring clean for the Golf, few new bits added as well.

@Neil@rockvale kindly sorted me out with some dealer style plates.



Started last night and Plasti Dipped the centre lower sections of the front and rear bumpers. I might wrap these, but I'll see how the plasti dip lasts.











Today I tackled into the wheels and arches.




















Exterior wise I think that's it for the Pirelli, I'm happy with how it looks.

Stunning!

Just misses the xenon headlights that I love in the front of our Golfs.

I've fitted the depo headlights with 5000k hids in mine I  couldn't be more happier with them..

If you don't mind me asking @Shoduchi what colour are your wheels Looks perfect on Silver?

[Rossimac]

Fantastic job Wayne. Wheels are looking awesome. Center caps definitely worth the dollar.
