Just a friggin' shame that the 15" (4.5kg) version doesn't come in 5/100, only 4/100 :mad:
I'm tempted to ask if they can import undrilled ones so I can get them machined here to fit. I reckon they look just fine (they're round)

you know, i dont mind the fact that we'd likely have to get 16'' wheels if we wanted to rock the rpf1's, but dammit, 15x7 for our cars would look friggin SWEET - nice and light, small, cheaper tyres, not to mention nice fat 205/50 rubber that would make the car look tough (dammit, there i go talking about looks now... but if you can have it, why not?)

do you reckon undrilled ones would be like a lamborghini gallardo variant? as in, they do less work to the final product (no stereo, air con, seat adjustability, trim etc etc) but you still have to pay more?

Plus the facelift is complete! Bit of nip and tuck for the Devil.....

Firstly lost the side skirts for a cleaner look. I was surprised at the very prominent lines now visible along the side of the car!

Sorry crappy pics while out shopping.

Then had the rear valance colour coded to match the sides

Even took off the bonnet insulation

Got some rubber VW stickers made up for the center caps for the real OEM look

Thanks mate!

Not too much with the interior. Just taking out the fuel and oil pressure gauges and their senders. The fuel pressure sender it way too heavy and is rubbing through other fuel hoses under the bonnet and the oil pressure sender keeps frying because its so close to the engine. I have replaced the triple gauge pod with a single din VW pocket from Jimmy and I'm installing a new type of boost gauge in an air vent pod.
