Looking at your meet you all had,you could do with some spacers to fill the arches a little, then it's complete
Just my opinion, maybe not yours

You can get them from the site sponsor virde
He can supply you with 10mm hub centric H&R spacers+ you will need longer locking bolts, he can supply them in black as the plastic caps don't fit the bolt head,

10mm that what your running? would have to be gray as black would stick out a mile on the gray alloys might look at this in the spring

That's what I'm running, fair point I forgot your alloys are grey

Spoke to Virdee today, he seems to think the locking bolt is only available in chrome but was going to check and get back to me. It is too small to fit the plastic cap apparently.

He wasn't entirely sure mate and I don't doubt you for a minute. Problem for me is that my alloys are (will be) graphite.

Yeh I guess you have the same issue as brooner, I had the silver ones on my b7 with very dark grey alloys, tbh it looked fine

Well the DVLA have finally sorted out the documentation for my plate after over 4 months.
A few shots of the short plate with the black badges, still not sure about the front with or without.

I do like the front without

I finally got a set of rear rings the correct size had to get theme from the states
But still haven't managed to find a rear badge in black the correct size they all seem to be too small
But I'm am starting to like the total de baged look

Not sure if the smoked lights would suit but I would need to see them on the car

Liking the cut down number plate holder
