This is my new Jetta, its a 06 2.0 TDI Sport 140 BHP
Standard spec at the moment, have a few plans but nothing too major.
Thinking of new rims, any suggestions lads?

Lovely motor , best of luck ,bbs reps wud look well

 

[DonalM]

Nice car.

Id leave the Classix on it for a while and spend the money on a remap and coilovers.

 

[eoghanroe]

Nice car. Like Donal said above, leave the wheels and work on getting it lower.

Ditto! Leave the Classix, space them out a bit and go lower!

Lovely car!

Cheers lads, had no plans to go lower, it already has a lowered sport suspension and with the bad roads in Donegal
don't think it would be a good idea, but I know what ye a re saying, it would look better lowered so might have a rethink on that one.

 

[oilburner]

Oh by the way the classix's are already sold, sold them to mk4dub on here. Need to start looking for a new set of rims now.

Forget about that not lowering malarkey!

Drop it over these and reep the rewards!

Them ones are for sale

A lot of people here (myself included) will tell you that the best place to find nice uncommon wheels at a decent price is ebay.de

Just email the seller to find a price on shipping and the seller will ship it to you
550 isnt a bad price but put in 500 in best offer and see how cheep you can get them for

[oilburner]

[kadett 244]

Looking good man

When ya getting rimmage?

 

[oilburner]

The car before

And after with the new grill and the R-line fog light grills painted black, what you all think.
Headlight tints on the way, think this will need to be done to match the grills.

Some more pictures

Also added a rear lip spoiler

Last picture, does it suit the car, what you think.

 

[ShaunieVW]

Needs to be lower to get the full effect IMO, but looks good all the same, Nice touches!
