need a wheel

[DieselBalz]

The Kiwi works down here. The plastic never gets really cold. I applied in March and have only had to touch up after having to scrub some *** off the plastic and the kiwi too.

Thanks, it looks good from a distance. But the paint is tired and has been resprayed in damaged areas and you can see the overspray. I plan on a respray after I remove the middle side moldings, pinstripe, fill a small ding on the bonnet, repair a small dent in the back, and I wanna keep it the original color. I know with metallics its tricky, so I wanna do it all at once.

That is a ways away though. I try to keep it clean and throw a coat of wax on it to protect whats left of the good paint.

Yours looks nice. I am not a fan of the small bumpers, but the body looks straight and I dig the simplicity of the wheel choice.

Hey, thanks. That white stuff under the LR door I cant get rid of, and I have to replace the front fenders, and check the floorpans for rust. I actually beat the crap out of this car til I found this site, I take care of it, then the engine craps out...lolol. But with the new engine, Giles IP and all the work getting done to it, as crazy as people think I am for doing it, I actually can't wait to start driving it, and take it across the Country. New carpeting (with Dynamat or similar stuff), redoing the Recaro seats (maybe have them dyed, they are comfy), looking for a quad headlight setup, and I will be done after the new paint job. But the electrical work, 1.8 gas manifold and d/p are hopefully done this week, it's off to the exhaust shop, then finally on the road.

Go new with the quadround. Its nice having all the tabs. I thought about it, but I am gonna go with the ecodes smoked to match the rest of the  tone of the car. I am gonna switch out my corner indicators for real smoked lenses. The painted looks ok, but doesnt compare to the new lenses. Same for the tails.

All on a long list of want to's.

Whilst talking about paint, (sort of) can yuo get the factory paint still from VW?

I see all of these quads missing tabs, but the hardest part is finding the radiator support. I thought I saw newer ones for sale on a website, I can't recall it. I'll keep looking, I'm sure I'll find it. Even thoughI do a lot of reading on here, what exactly are 'E-codes'? Read about it quite frequently, but never comprehended them. Not certain about the NOS paint, but no doubt someone here will know. .

Stay safe, stay well. Jimmy.
