Thanks mate I split the wheels, hand polished the rim and had the centers sprayed at a wheel specialist. For the rims the process consists of starting at 120 grit wet & dry, then 240, 400, 600, 1200. You can then polish them by hand (autosol, luster pad etc) or use a machine polisher It takes about a day if you really crack on with them!

It's definitely worth it

Thanks Verity Yeah they really do make the front end look cleaner

Further progress with my rear light mod

Using some clear Hella LED rear lights, i took the LED boards out of them to use in my rear lights..

Similar to the one's 'tegwin' use to make but the official Hella ones

Going to get them put into my rear lights at some point this week and get my bro to wire them up The back of the light will be cut, and it will be slotted in position

In other news, I am going to look into getting something unique made for my headrests...keep your eye out

Thanks Emma I'm hoping it works!

Thought this might be what it was! I'm tempted to make my own boards for my brake lights for the black Hella LEDs I have on mine! Seems a waste of the lights considering what some people will pay but good effort!

Haha I reckon you should do it mate

The lights were broken - there was a hole in the face of the light, so they were of no use

That's alright then!
I wanna just far too lazy if I'm honest. Would mean making up the boards myself and everything I just don't have the time with work and uni.

Looks great Greg. Have you got bigger brakes on your gti?

Look forward to seeing how the lights turn out.

Looking forward to seeing the lights finished and intrigued by the headrest mods

Looks great Greg look forward to seeing the final result with the lights
