so in love wit them, when there shiney
They're RH Topline A's, they're diamond cut as standard and are a bugger to polish!!!

Got them off German Ebay for a bargain (especially when I saw a set for sale for £750 elsewhere! :o

I saw a set on a Mk2 Golf in 17" about 7 years ago and instantly loved them. :wink: they look like AMG wheels

SHINY....... and grimy :) (ooh, contrast!)
It's at that stage that you tend to confirm or discover a diagnosis of a blown head gasket by looking at three sooty pistons and one lovely and shiny steam-cleaned one...

^^ March '05. More pics from the same 'shoot in my Tyresmoke gallery. I use Autoglym Supreme Polish, now available to everyone (previously trade-only) as "Deep Shine" or something. Its the best :)

If I hadn't been so lazy (read: tired :P ) at the All Types VW show I could have gotten some cracking shine photos - polished the car three times in less then 24hrs 8)

Cheers

that second one with the horizon forming a go faster stripe is easily art enough...

:lol: lol wait until i actually get round to putting the picklies up and you get to see the (wildly differing) state of the valves and domes in the head!!

i was about to suggest an alternative "show us your sh*t" thread, but..
1. already done it (some time ago, granted)
2. dirt, for some reason, just doesn't photograph with the same obviousness as it strikes the eye in real life
3. some sick people would get confused

G6O LO lives in my town aswell but Im not so keen on the driver
