Hmm, they're not white but definately look cream/grey rather than silver.

I'd appreciate it if someone could maybe photoshop them onto my car, just to see what it looks like.

i was gonna say the same as si....they definitely look white/cream. I they would look awesome on a black or red gti, but i cant picture it on the silver. They look differnt tho, which is good :wink:

Think Sundays task is to jack up the car and bolt the wheel on and see what it looks like! :roll:

Really don't want to be forking out another £100 to sort them out, not with Christmas looming. There's gifts to be bought, and lots of parties to party at and nights out to get wasted!

I really don't know what to do if i don't like them.

1, flog them on Ebay, buy some more and refurb them. (maybe break even)
2, keep hold of them til after Crimbo then re-paint (£100 down drain)
3, Get a can of spray paint and spray them a darker colour.

Should have known this project wouldn't be simple! :P

Have a word with him and say it's not really the colour you were after.

Get some pictures of them outside in natural light first.

And also, I'd recommend selling them after Christmas, as everyone else tends to be in the same position as you and not wanting to spend money at the moment.

not to my taste sorry matt - and i do think that they look "cream" but may look different by eye. Personally i would go for a different colour but its all about taste - if you like em - keep em - they're different

Here are some pics with natural light on them. They look a bit darker and am actually starting to like them a little more!

They look good :-)

I don't think they will suit a Silver GTi though, sorry! Think they will look fab on a Black one, or even Red. :idea:
