I'll try contacting him for you, I know his email address is on his profile, but I'll try contacting him first.

Those one off eBay are really bad quality, they fade very quickly, and arnt worth the price- specially as he's had them up for £1.99 at one point. The ones the chap on clublupo sell are German made, and a bit thicker, I also havnt heard anyone yet moan about them fading which is good :D

Wheels loook ace btw, like brand new 8)
Thank you! I'm really happy with how they came out, will be nice to have some OEM wheels in him again

Ooohh, I thought the ones off eBay were the same as ClubLupo ones...would explain as mine was pink when I took it off last week :lol:

OEM always looks better, you sure you don't want to buy some 16" RX2's? :D

Gave the car a quick polish and Wax this morning, so decided to take a few photos.
Still getting used to the RXIIs. The Lensos have been on for a good 2 years or so, so its weird to see him with different wheels.
Will need to Clean my Brake Calipers, theyve barely seen the light of day since the Lensos went on, so they are practically black.

Notcied a lot of Grease on the front Passenger side wheel. the CV gaiter isnt split, but possibly a bit loose (?)
I dont seem to be having any luck with it. for the past 2 MOTs its had to be replaced. :s it best not go wrong by MOT time (September), as itll then be the 3rd time.

Really nice example of how polo's should all look like. Even though it should be black :twisted: There's no way I'm posting up revealing pics of my car till I get some some of the minor details fixed..

Thank you very much. I really like how the GTIs look from factory, so getting him look like he just rolled off the forecourt is my aim.
Haha true! I LOVE Black Polos

You should!!!! You really should get some photos up!!! Nothing shows up in photos! Believe me! Lol
You should see my bumpers in person!! My rear is pealing, and my front has more stone chips on it, then there are stars in the sky!!! .... Not to mention a large scratch on the bump strip, where my boyfriend tried to run me over once, and got his fence instead lol

Calipers need a better clean, but after a quick wipe down im pretty happy to see they have survived quite well since they were last painted 2 1/2 years ago

Do you guys think these would look any good on the RXIIs??

Wheels are looking good Verity :D I'm refurbing the lips on mine this weekend finally!

Personally i wouldn't go for the stickers on the wheels, may look a bit OTT, but totally up to you 8)
