Just hope the other driver is even more upset about it than you, then they might feel obliged to whack the steels back on and yours will be original again 8)

Or even better, look at it as a challenge, don't get down about it and just take the experience to think of more original ideas!

Ah thats why I never bought a set myself, they look stunning but soooo many dubs have them. Anyway, customise your rims which shows originality.

Run out of ideas myself but maybe white dish with a coloured centre or white centre with polished dish?

I agree with noz, i think colour coding the centres though would look quality, especially if you get some clear indicators and side repeaters for it.

its true. there a very nice set of wheels but they are all to common these days. if i were you id either colour code them or do something extra special and creative with em to make them stand out.

Saying that though just because everyones got them doesnt mean theyre not nice. Every golf seems to have BBS wheels btu they still look the s**t.

i first saw ATS Cups on a 6n, could say i used that idea, lol, i know they have become popular, but not really around my area, which is good for me, tho there a few nice euro 6n's in mansfiled.

Get the centre shadow-chromed which would look very stleathy on a grey polo. Try finding picks of the rims in that shade and you'll agree with me. Recall one of the guys here having shadow chromed RA's on his red mk5.

lol don't be such a girl its not like your wearing an identical dress to the ball! Just customize your car you might have the same rims but with original styling your cars will be totally different.
