Title: Ed30 Pescara Alloys
Post by: Jamie30 on September 11, 2013, 06:56:54 pm

Hi all, it's come to that time for me to refurb my alloys , they were marked when I bought it a few months ago.


Here she is!

I really like the standard colour but from research I've heard it's a pain to get a match. I'm really quite tempted to go to a more silver finish . Does any one have any pics of a tornado red gti with hyper silver Pescaras?  :notworthy:

Or I fact any colour combination will help ! Thanks in advance.

Here's one I found whilst searching the net for hours although it has 19'' bbs ch ( don't quote me)!
Either way the wheels look awesome.  :drool:

But if anybody has made the choice to go silver let me know your thoughts!

Here is another of my ed30

Other plans I'm thinking about include

Making the splitter lip gloss black and the rear valance black so it is similar to an r32.. But I'm not sure on these as of yet!


Cheers!  :happy2:

My Eddy with Hyper Sliver BBS VZ'zzzzz (there the same as Pescara's/BBS CH's, just better  :laugh:). Doesn't really show how Silver they are, they are VERY shiny in the flesh/metal......

Old pic of my rear, looks better with the lower valance painted Gloss Black IMO.........

You've done a good job on her! Love those wheels!

Very nice! I like your rear valance black too, is that sprayed or vinyl wrapped?

Its vinyl wrapped. Makes it easier to return to standard at a later date (if I wish to).  :happy2:
