HTH :thumbup:

oh yes - cheers!

looks great - defo want to do the same, interesting yours look nice and shiney, maybe satin is what I need!

Very nice :thumbup:

Now, if someone could kindly change the colour to Anthracite using Photoshop, I might be able to make my mind up :)

And while theyre at it, a piccy with white wheels would be good too... I'm curious ;):)

Looks nice. Only issue I have is that it seems to make the red brakes look a lot smaller!!

It's such a shame that given Skoda's motorsport history that there isn't a few OEM options on the vRS, A few wheel choices, a dual exhuast system rather than the boring VAG pipes maybe even a brake upgrade. This alongside with the Eibach 20mm drop option(soon to be deleted?????) would really underline the sporty image Skoda have built themselves with the vRS range. Skoda have a broad spectrum of drivers, old and young and I think they could really push the vRS a bit further into the market. For example, how many people would have ticked the 'colour coded grill' option over the last few years?

Being a SEAT driver they really play on the BTCC/WTCC idea by offering wheel options, bodykits and exhaust options and even a full Brembo kit. None of which invalidate the warranty.

I dont want a chav option list just good quality items

It's hard to get a good representative shot of the car with dark wheels - I can assure that it looks way better in the flesh. I was also concerned about the black wheels appearing to be smaller than the standard ones but in reality they look great. I would recommend going for satin at a minimum (mine are probably between satin and gloss) as they appear larger with the light reflecting off them.

I got the wheel painters to do one wheel in my chosen paint (powder coat) before he did the lot. I looked at a matt wheel he'd painted for a Porsche and it didn't look right.

Very nice :thumbup:
