Cant beat a good set of RXII's :) get them refurbed and they will look the business

As for the centre caps your best removing the VW logo's and buying a set of 56mm VW logo transfers of eBay.
Stick them in place and use clear vinyl over the top, looks really good and will save you £20.00

That's the centre cap size for the 15" & 16" BBS RX & RXII's mate, other wheels may differ so your best removing the centre cap and measuring the diameter. The Dotz wheels may have a different sized centre cap

I was going to buy some more off ebay, but 4.99 seemed a bit steep for the quality of it, seen as mine has gone light pink now after 6 months.

Does local lupo man sell this good quality trim online/ forums? i need some!

Aye :) I attually got it from a chap on club lupo 99hjhm.
He has a thread in the for sale section but I just pm'd him.
It's really good quality and I really like it.
I tried the Halfords tape and wasn't massively happy with it personally, but that's cos I'm used to having a trim, and like how that looks. It does look much more OEM using the tape tho in all fairness.

haha true 8)


what colour suits the RXIIs with regards to having a silver polo??
I know I want them to look originalish. so no funky colours. despite all the colour suggestions from my mates lol

ive been looking at VW/Audi colours mainly......but dont really mind what brand. just cant even decide one what im really looking for.....
I deffinatly want a metallic paint. But I don't know if I want to go for silver or grey, or lighter or darker then my body paint work.

you guys like any of these? (sorry about photo colour quality)

the silver in the middle of the circle is my paintwork (to give some idea of how they look together)
