Re: Pre Cut tinting kits
i'd rather pay the 250 for all round tinting at most tint places..
at least then, if you've got any bubbles/problems then you can have it sorted.
Gotta remember, a pre-cut kit would need to be oversized, and cause windows are curved, they take some heat adjusting to fit and this can cause shrinking ...

Not changed mine on the passat yet, but you can get silver bulbs.

Eagerly awaiting the motor though.. currently driving round in a 1997 Clio ...

Re: I R NOOB!!
Now officially delayed on getting the car, see, my uncle told me he needed to spray the rear wing where previous owner had clipped a gate post or something..
So while he's got the spray in the gun, i've asked him to colour code all the plastics :)
should give the car a nice fresh appearance and ...

Re: 19" wheel fitting
Hey BB,
don't suppose you have any side images of the car you can link me? be interested to see how 40mm sits
Which offset wheels you go for? the calculator i found says can go with ET35-45 (presume this is without spacers)

Wanting to fit some 19's onto the b5.5
What work will i need to do to have them looking good
as for lowering, what sort of drop will i be able to safely achieve?
Once slammed a 306 front end 110mm on 18's, but had to ...

Hi Dan,
Thanks, but i'm good, Flux was the best of the quotes i've had so far, although they didn't like it when i tried to add the missis on her provisional. It slapped the policy up to £1800. No thanks
sooner just pay for her to have some lessons

indeed they did, used to run a modified car club in Doncaster. They sponsored us there too :)
Cost is a little high, but then again i'm going from 3rd party only on a 1.2 clio in Doncaster to the 2002 passat near London, so it's expected haha
anyways..
