Hope your replacement shows up in a timely manner and you get back safe and sound.
Well the mk4 888's, like my car, are getting a bit long in the tooth, so chances of finding a good set are slim to nothing, also the original 888 rims are quite wide, 7.5j possibly 8j, so I'd be better off getting a new shiney set of team dynamics pro sport 1.2's in my chosen size. They are the same wheel without the 888 markngs. Problem is I like so many other rim styles. notsure.gif
May just carry on colour coding, (handles,roofrails etc..), and sort interior until next spring, then buy some, will have to do some photoshops as you suggest.

Well i've 'borrowed' this pic from someone selling their astra on the bay, diamond cut with black/anth inner
Theres a place in wroxham that does wheel refurb/spraying, not sure about diamond cutting locally though? I will find out though!

Cheers Drakey! ...Funny as you say that, No not "Yet"! But hoping to book there in Feb 09 for a track day with a mate of mine! Just waiting back from them for prices etc...
Welcome to the site Shane, nice coupe and looks to be in very good condition. Same year as mine and 'tax exempt' Well unbanded at least?
Did you do the mods to it like the headlights and grill and stuff.
Looks nice mate, I'd lose the fuel flap sticker though, looks a bit tacky to me.

Thanks Andy!
Yess mate, i changed the headlights my self and the grill too... the Irmscher spliters etc were on the car from factory as the same as the fuel cap.
Believe it or not shes done 130,000 miles now and looks mint! But people say i clean her to much, washing her every 3-4 days and spending 2-3 hours poishing/ waxing her at weekends etc lol...
