looks good mate, not my personal preference of alloy for the car as i think they are associated to mk 5 GTI too much and not the mark 6 but nice all the same.
Get the-50 springs on, be a devil
lol

I used to have very similar alloys, you could always get bbs centre caps. I think silver ones would look good with a silver car.

Seconded, the BBS ones do look great. I opted for VW ones and regretted it after about a week. And didnt really fancy paying another £30 for another set!

are they 7j or 6.5j pip??
i've got the 7j versions on mine from a mk3 golf 20th anni, i opted for the carbon look BBS centre caps from VAG Parts
