t8ups 0 Posted November 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 i got it with 67k last summer, as i work local it dont get the miles on it, the engine is very tight, my brothers one had 120k on it and it used to go alot better top end than this one. i got some of these they need a good refurb, the specs are 17x8 all round 5x112 so will be perfect with adaptors. i bought them 3 years ago but want to put them on this when i get hold of the cash to have them refurbed.

t8ups 0 Posted November 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2011 So i had a busy day getting the car ready for winter so did a few of the mods i wanted to get done.i bought a HID kit in 8000k and fitted that in with matching side lights. and some rather cool number plate LED's.i managed to wrap a few bit around the car in Carbon which i am pleased with. the number plate bulbs where only £10 but work great as the seller told me that they have been custom made for mk3's and a great job of that too, they have a angle to Link to post Share on other sites
