I think it makes the front look more interesting!


Im planning on putting a audi s6 recaro interior in it and adding some air. Oh and a genral clean up. The arches need abit of work because of some rust. But this will prob be lateish next year becuase i am at uni without my car

I just bought some new wheels for it and will post up some pics when they get here from America.

Let me know what you think.

My B5 Passat.... Back on the hunt

Fucking bastards! Still haven't received my new wheels. Over a month after paying!
Pretty certain that he's trying to scam me now so i just put in a claim on paypal and am on the hunt for wheels again.

[richsurtees]

that sucks, hope you get it sorted!

[bredrin]

hope there not from this dude keeps changing user names on forums and ebay worth a read

gd luck and hope there is a gd reason for the delay

[LukeyBabes]

Thanks rechsurtees but i don't think i'm getting these wheels tbh. Been screwed around a lot by him. his emails just don't make sense at all. been given no tracking and he just makes excuse after excuse. He said about giving me my money back and me paying him after i receive the wheels. Which i was like ok then and he said that i should see the funds soon. But that was 2 days ago and paypal is instant. And since monday is 45 days since i payed him (45 days is the time limit that you have to make a case on paypal for an unrecived item) I suspect hes just stalling me. So now ive opened a case.

Whats the about a dude keep changing his name? Is he from america?

There really are some pricks out there. Doesn't really sound like my guy though. Im just happy i paid with paypal.

[sCrapp]

good decision on filing the case against him! i know quite a few people have been screwed of ther by being stalled like that.

I really like that re-trim btw! looks sweet!

[LukeyBabes]

Thanks mate. I might aswell say where they gunna be. were 17 inch rs for reasonably cheap. NEED to find some more. Really want some!!!!

There is a thread talking about someone doing the same sort of thing to other people that im going through. Not sure if its the same bloke but ive added my story to it.
