Looks like they are true to the original timeframe and you will get it back before Xmas :laugh:
Seriously though, this is when things start getting interesting as it means you will soon be screwing bits back on instead of removing them.

I am of course an expert at using paint.net.

But I bought some possibly inappropriately large wheels.
So I'm back to colours again :D

Whites nice but horrid to keep clean :(

White spokes and black or dark grey inside?
Too modern?

I really like the Azev Type A, but for a thread to have the title of "The worlds most perfect wheel" when they are a copy of a Momo Star?

Silver with a blue car would be my favourite combination for wheels having had a couple...maybe work OK on black

They are at Gatwick, about to leave the UK. Must stop obsessively tracking my car parts as they come to me.

Oh, also, weird thing.
I emailed Audi UK with my chassis number to confirm paint code and apparently the factory in Germany says my car is Zermatt Silver Metallic.
This is puzzling because I've seen every layer of paint on my car and there's no silver in there. So it hasn't has a respray unless it was bare metal, which is highly unlikely.
I'm wondering if this is something to worry about!
