Those really suit the overall look of the van better than your old ones! I dig it!

Looking good Sean. I’m not usually a fan of black wheels but they look really good against the blue, very smart.

is the plate leggit or just for show looks ?
be sweet if it was
I think the black wheels make the other black accents pop
have you thought about painting the brakes the same blue as the car (hope I'm not giving you thoughts !!
I bet she sounds and runs as good as she looks :)

Finally got my mk8 GTI hybrid bumper on with fog lights up and running.
Headlight jet washer’s in just waiting for some parts ie mk4 washer container as the mk3 one is in the way for the fogs.
Had to do a temporary modification (squeeze the container with a bit of heat)

Thought I would tidy up my air intake manifold.
So I took it apart sanded in down

Gave in a couple of coats of 2k high build primer.

Image

I did think about going silver again but I was thinking I don’t have anything silver so I went for BG Blue ImageImage
Image
Image

Oh and I had to redo the black.

Image

I think it doesn’t look to bad really
Image
Image

Now I’ve just got to fit it all back on the caddy
