Im not getting lupo arms now - its a total waste of money as its just a nightmare to fit and maintain.

Never seen a red CC before, I've seen 1 blue one on CP, a blacky/bluish CC TDI and a couple of yellow ones

I thought they might have came in a bright green too

Ye. No point in changing something that works!

UPDATE:

The wheels have come back from the powdercoaters

Shot blasted, powder coated, and lacquered all for Â£100 - what a bargain!!

The company that did it are K&N Finishers (www.kandnfinishers.co.uk) so if you need any done in the south region, id definately recommend them!

Tyres get fitted tomorrow afternoon, so I can finally get the RX2s off for the winter for refurbing

The finish is superb although, unfortunately, the wheel that had the least bubble wrap got damaged on the lipwhen i was bringing them home (always the way isnt it!!)

, but luckily I managed to find a paint that is the same colour and finish, so have repaired it

Anyhow, enough talk. Here are some photos. Ill get more when they are on the car
