Im a newbie

got a 1.4 tdi reflex silver twist on a 53 plate.
Am a bit stuck as what to do. I have so far stretched to a little sub (in silver to match the car (sad I know)) But am currently stuck on what to do next. Have been looking for some deep dish chunky alloys..but these tend to be 4 stud fitment

Am also looking for a kit, as I am on a budget it is proovin difficult. Although I think I have found one for about 468 not too sure on it though. any way should really tell you about myself Im 21 and from Hertfordshire and I work for streetlighting in the local govournment sector.
Erm dont know what else to say.. although my bf is a vw mechanic

Welcome
Despite having a colour coded car (just by chance more than anything) I'd say having balck bump strips with other detailing can look quite good.
Dino's 9n looked good with black bump strips and I was happy with myold 9n with black bump strips.
To answer your question yes we do have meets. Not overly frequent for sole club meets and they are region divided. A lot of us do meet up at Other VW/Car shows & events through out the year. They'll all be posted in the Meets & Events section
