Mud Guards

Post by shaunrazer »

Picked up the genuine VW mud guards on Friday and got round to fitting them over the weekend.

Subtle difference but I like them, photos don’t really do them any justice, nice little touch in my opinion.

As a side note, how easy are these wheels to clean? Easiest set I’ve ever experienced!

Those look really neat, finish off the car well. 8) Like the wheels too - nice open design and easy to clean! Have you done any detailing / protection yet on the paintwork?

Sure have, decontaminated using Gyeon Q2M Iron, washed with Gyeon Q2M Bathe Plus, coated with Gyeon Q2M Wet Coat. Used PoorBoys wheel sealant on the wheels, just something I had lying around and only done the fronts, planning on taking them off and fully sealing them next weekend maybe.

At the same time I’m thinking on painting the brake callipers, likely silver, and some of the axel that VW don’t bother with, found a nice Black carbon metallic.

Was also thinking on changing the centre caps, can anyone recommend a set for the Bonneville wheels? Looking for a set that are more black.
