vwdeviant 0 Posted December 22, 2008 Not quite unique - Jay got the idea for Corvette wheels having seen a MkIV sitting on a set of them at one of the european shows, but certainly it was unique in the UK. The need to have a set of one-off adapters CNC'd to allow the fitment (which Jay specc'd and designed on Autocad himself) will ensure that they remain a very rare sight though. Not "That" Rare John, There's another Raod on them, A Vento and a Polo that I know of, and I'm not a "Scene Whore" Doesn't matter though, because they suit Vicks car bang on!

Stan 24v 0 Posted April 13, 2009 Just seen this! Good effort Vick my man! That is probably the (well at least was) most sorted Rado in the UK that you have there! If it wasnt for me it would never have had a 24v engine! Ha ha only kidding, but the opposite way around is fairly true ;) The word you're looking for is: INSPIRATION Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
