Steelies back on painted new colour, tidys it up a bit for a while. Also fitted new gaz front air struts hopefully improve the ride quality

Full car picture now the steels have been repainted. Dropped the front an extra 5-10mm and still more to go Smile

Now to redo the boot build for show season

That is low....

I can't see how you can get it lower on the front

What happened to the red wheels? I thought it looked alright.

Yep agreed, I think it was more the colour being wrong than the wheels themselves. Paint them in some obscene flip paint or lilac or maybe some lurid fluro colour, Maybe have them all different colours, pastel pink, lilac, yellow and green maybe and i reckon they will make the car.

Got sick of the red wheels tbh they are now sold.

Well I can adjust the setup slightly for more lows, much greater comfort with double bellows and gaz shocks though which is good.

Now to decide what colour to paint the car

Dare I say it....Think this would look better with cyclones... ninja

The steels aren't that bad but just something more aesthetically pleasing personally, hopefully see you about when the better weather's here and I get this passat sorted!

You may be right, been tempted to get a set to try. But too oem for me I think.

The weather doesnt look like changing anytime soon lol

Paint it, dont wrap it! I wrapped mine and you will never be truly happy with a wrap, ended up taking it all off after a few months and respraying

I'd try a set on to see, wouldn't hurt.
Naw definitely doesn't lol hopefully does just as I get mine sorted Tongue

Quick update the new wheels are finally on, staggered borbet A 7.5j and 9j.

Came in pretty poor condition so polished the lips up myself and painted the centres Smile

[attachment=22562]

next on the list is to re-do the air boot build with something more special

RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - rd070707 - 09-04-2015

Slightly better picture

WOW that is effing LOW!

How do you get about? Do you live on the flats of the land? Do you have spare sumps? It looks awesome though! Big Grin

very very sexy Wink

RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - rd070707 - 10-04-2015

its on air ride bud I can only roll in a straight line like that lol. As long as its an extremely flat road that is

RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - highwayman306 - 10-04-2015

So you lift it for daily use and speed bumps Big Grin

There's barely enough room for a rizla on that rear arch lol you thought of flaring/ rolling the arches a lil bit... I guess that might spoil the look though :/ still very nice looking Big Grin

Or.... Dimma Big Grin

RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - Dum-Dum - 11-04-2015

Gotta be honest I preferred the bright green steels.

Massively agree.

RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - Jonny81191 - 11-04-2015

Yeah, as awesome as this is, it's lost a lot of it's individuality. Borbet's have been done to death since dinosaurs roamed lol

RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - Toms306 - 11-04-2015

I prefer the shiny rimmed ones to the green ones, so it's all personal preference really. Being honest I don't like that height over them though, I know it's only show height so probably look better (imo) at road height. Smile

RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - 7057sam - 11-04-2015

I like it in booth form as somthing people haven't done to many 306's

Great work,keep it up : )

Uck yeah gotta say the steels were great but just simply got bored of them and needed a change. Borbets are pretty common I know and to be honest they arent what I set out to buy but wheels in the right width offset are hard to come by and I couldnt stand the car sitting not moving any longer.

We will see what comes up for sale over the next while I may change again. On the look out for some clones at the minute though to keep the borbets good

Yeah I cant disagree with you lol, I just wanted polished rims and found it hard to find anything special that will fit right. Plus I polished them up so may have increased there value a bit

Another years MOT on the old girl, first time its been through with the air suspension so its good they are happy with the work

Had comtemplated taking this back to standard and selling up but I cant do it, so still considering painting it, any nice ideas on colour?

RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - 1616six - 15-05-2015

Mint green.

RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - rd070707 - 15-05-2015

yeah always thought of that colour JJ. If I do go full paint though id be sorely tempted to convert to phase 1 on the way

RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - Leemus - 17-05-2015

colour i was going to do mine and from that car that wanted me to do it years ago but last year it was common as hence why i changed my mind. plus theres a 306 i think from hungry in that colour
