Tried two different color-schemes for the wheels in the last days.
My first idea looked like this:


But the scheme I'll go with will be this:


There are some more things planned for the next year...such as getting rid of the area for the licenseplate on the frontbumper, trunkdoor without the nub for the rearwhiper and without a mechanical opener, different taillights and other small mods... there'll be lots to do... during the winter season.

looking forward to seeing those new rims with some rubber and on the car

Should fit fine with minor work on the arches and 215/35s.

@ Topic
Think you guys now how they look, but as I did some pics anyway...




16x9.5J ET38 all around... got to see if I can get 215/35s on them all legal...
If it won't work, I'll probably get them cut down to 9J, as you still can get 215/35s on 9J all legal in Germany and hey... just would allow me to drop the Golf even more

Going to get those tires (they are still the first ones, on which the C4 left the factory, lol) pulled down on monday, going to see how they fit under the arches then lol

I was bored, so I bought a new set of seats two weeks ago





Black Recaro leather seats with heating from a black 94 or 95 MKIII Golf Colour Concept.
Spent the evenings this week reparing and refreshing the leather of the front seats.
The driver's seat was a bit used and damaged due to wrong or no care...





The result is okay, nothing I'm going to keep forever, but good enough until I find a good set of replacement sideparts for the seat.

Yesterday my brother and I just been bored, so we decided it was about time to swap my interior... out with the old Recaro interior and in with the new:



Still got to get the harness for the seat heating installed... but it already looks great. It's a whole different feeling inside now... and I'm not really sure yet, if I'll keep them or not lol

I guess for this year I'm done with the mods, I'll just get a new trunkdoor with no rust and no hole for a wiper, so that damn, plugged bump and the rust will finally vanish.. Gonna get some rust removed on the body as well and that's it.

Next year though there'll be some minor changes....
Some months ago I bought those:


Borbet A 9Jx16 ET15
I'll need 15mm spacers at the front for brakeclearance and 20mm at the back to fit the front.
So yeah it'll be ET00 at the front and ET-05 at the back, tires will be 215/35s or even 205/40s... depends on if I want to go all legal or not.
There are just two real requirements for my plan: I won't pull the arches and I don't want to raise my car more than my daily setup

Wenn doch nur alle 3er in Deutschland so aussehen würden ;-) :-D

Stefan finally got around to cutting his frame and dropping the car even more.
