Title: 3 door black GTI - Monza 2's diamond cut and black inserts. Photos Required !
Post by: Britishlion on July 13, 2010, 08:12:15 am


Hi All

As title suggests, car is booked in for Monday to have our Monza 2's refurb'd

I really want to have them diamond cut with the black inserts but as girlfriend drives the car during the week she does not want it looking chavvy ! so have been tasked to find some good photos of how our car would look once done before i get permission.

Does anybody have any photos of the above


thanks in advance

Brilliant !


Thanks Greeners !

Sorry no offence meant ! It is just the way she put it as she does not like none OEM look things as she uses it to take clients out etc.

i would not even be thinking about it if i thought it all looked chavvy !

if possible have you got a side on photo of your car with those wheels anywhere !


thanks in advance

Will have a look but was struggling to find many with those wheels on.

Plus they don't get more OEM as they are the same as MK6 GTI.  :happy2:

yeah they look really sweet, the contrast between the diamond cut and the black works really well imo. im like a kid at xmas waiting to put them on but gonna have the bumpers colour coded first, dont wanna risk the bodyshop overspraying onto them so they are sat in the garage receiving regular coats of polish/wheel sealant!  :grin:

Nath...
Those 2 pics are just such a 'template'/benchmark pic for any Monza's, particularly the Shadows  :drool:

Love it. Once I'm done with the split rims I think a set of those are next or perhaps for winter wheels even :drinking:
