  2. Cheers! I want to paint it a nice grey but swmbo wants to keep it white, so I'm looking for a suitable white pearl, but that's a long way off :(

    It would always have to be an original VW colour for me, pearl white, orange wheels:eek:

    I always think they look better and are more useable the right side of ratty.

  5. VW did a pearl didn't they? Trust me, I know what I'm doing. I'm taking good care and the changes will be subtle... You'll still recognise it and will have a unique place in its history

    The orange wheels are to match the orange engine. Can't have engines and wheels that don't match!!
    :D

  6. I know someone who did this, it cost him a fortune!

    Did you see the info I got from the guys in South Africa?

  8. I saw a car today that had orange wheels like yours and matching orange roof tip spoiler, like a factory option.
    Pretty sure it was a Nissan, one of those fake 4 x 4 s that looks like a bunch of haemorrhoids .

    Edit. Err wasn't implying your pickup was going to look like piles, rather were you aware Nissan are copying you?

    I reckon that the offset of those wheels could cause a problem especially at the rear as they seem to be more out biased if you know what I mean, have a look at the ones below and you will see what I mean

  12. You'd be surprised what'll fit!

    Yes I did why didn't I do that:(
    Really interesting:thumbsup:
     

  14. No the offset is fine not at home right now but I think they are ET45? With the rears fitted there is stacks of clearance for the arches, even if I fit spacers

  15. What do you think of this colour and wheel combo :thinking:

  16. That looks very cool. I'm looking at a slightly darker grey. I actually have an option on a set of genuine 911 Fuchs. I also have an offer from Otto Fuchs themselves on a new set of fuchsfelge but I'm not sure I'd be able to make them fit. That would be v.cool

    @holmsen here you are Jan, I know you was waiting for a final pic of all 4 wheels in place
