GTI plans

After some thinkin and playing on photoshop I've decided this is how I will get my GTI in the summer.

What you reckon guys?

Coilies and a refurb of the BBS splits & powder coating them black!

Maybe some spacers too!

looks good - bar the limo tints on the rears, bit too much for me!

I was thinking of doing the black wheels aswell, but didn't know what it would look like on a black GTi. But it looks the muts nuts, defo get it done like that.

I agree with M6TT F about the tints, scrap that idea.

Cheers guys!

I love the way the 'chop looks so will def be going down that route.
Even if someone beats me to it, lol!

Know what you mean about the tints but unfortunately I bought the car with them already done!

Never mind!

Do you like the tints yourself, or would you get rid if you can

cjwardy · Post by **cjwardy** » Sat Feb 25, 2006 10:21 pm

They do have their perks, if ya get me?

But i would get rid of them & have a lighter tint at the back to match the front if i could! Probably will in the future.

Those sorts of perks, yes, i get what you mean

that was my plans too, coillies and the exact same refurb
spent to much already though

i got very dark tints on my polo too, but the difference is they're titanium based, so they dont look as black as your tints but look more shiney, not like the chav silver tints, but they look more greeny. and they are much more reflective.

sounds like a good plan
im wondering what black rims would look like on an anthracite grey coloured car

hmmmm

I too was thinking of having my BBS splits refurbed with black centres - looks like it will be this season's colour of choice!

Jury is still out though, should have arranged to borrow dubpolo's black BBS for a week before he left the country

Coilies and winter rims are top of my list though

Ben, your car would look stealthy with the standard BBS coloured black & polished lip. Get a photoshop picture put together & have a look ( i am interested to see what it would look like now)

stealthy can only be good.......with a hidden exhaust

Ben, what about instead of black centres, BBS with gunmetal centres instead?

Different to black, and might work well with your dark grey paint
