I got mine really quickly! They must be snowed under at the moment....

They're brilliant breaks and whine when you use them hard. :lol:

All I will say is, the centre spigot bits do go rusty if you use a wheel acid/cleaner. So it might be worth painting them up before putting them on?

Really won't the paint just come/wear off? Hmm maybe some black Hammerite then you think? I don't use acidic wheel cleaner use Bilberry wheel cleaner not acidic but even still water will make them rusty obviously.

Not if it's a metal paint it shouldnt. I used a black engine lacquer on mine (which is ok for high temperatures). Basically as soon as mine got wet, they started to rust. :lol:

Us girls have a different view on things obviously and the other girls on the site have made their cars looks brilliant.

Never posted these I don't think, ages ago I sprayed my engine & battery cover to tidy the engine bay.

Last September I bought a plug and play Passat W8 light been fitted all that time but I have only just got round to wiring it to the headlight dimmer switch so you get the jazzy red LEDs! Will take a pic later of them when its dark.

Yeh only the dimmer part the rest was done by Steve (off here) I bought it off him so all I had to do was solder 2 wires. The one coming off the headlight switch was a bitch no room to work in plus I am rubbish at soldering never do it!

Yeh I wanted to do the airbox but not sure I can be arsed! I think nothing fancy in my engine bay no pretty coloured pipes so its never gets showed off I was just bored. They do not loo that great as I have no clue about spraying just followed tops from people off here really.

Looks good, remember getting my Ibiza ones done - yours aren't very shiny though, trouble with can laquer - cheap for a reason :)

I think aimez covers would look better in real life just her photo is lacking in light to be honest. Your one is taken on a much brighter day/more exposure maybe. To be fair for someone who's not done much spraying it's a great job.
