I bought a Cabby about 3 months ago reallly cheap. I got it running and was gonna sell.. but.. decided on keepin it. Did some work to it. replaced 1.6 motor to 1.8. Recaro interior, new suspension,Euro Bumpers, top, BLAH BLAH.. and decided to polish the ronol R10,s and put them on.. Found a BBS kit .. ANd Voiallla.. .now.. you guys think i should paint the kit white or leave it black..

By the way thes pics were taken at the A3 GTG by Weaver.. Thanks for the pics .. http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

leave the kit black, it looks good that way.. maybe consider one of the duck-bill spoilers for the bottom front...
nice wheels too!

only thing I see is the main body paint needs a little work. The rest looks great!

If you had the BBS front spoiler, I would say paint the kit white. But, without it I think it looks better with the kit black. Of course, you should do what you like best...

It would look crazy like this.. a big ABD/BBS/Zender or a nice big duck bill.

Looking good. http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif
Are you going to bring it to the ND show?

Re: Some updated Cabby Pics.. (retrohasen)

I'm really starting to want a set of those wheels.
Did you polish them yourself or have it done? $?
That looks really nice, decided on a color for paint yet? If you paint it a light color I would leave the kit black. If you paint it a dark color like dark blue, dark green, black, I think it would look good with the kit painted to match.

Jerry,paint it purple and take the back seat out and put a massive stereo in it, oh no wait, someones done that already.

Hey Retro he'll be at ND for sure,but in a certain black Rocco I suspect.

Also Jerry,you need to take about four inch out of the springs

Re: Some updated Cabby Pics.. (tnesh)

Jerry,did you think about all black paint, would look Da Bollox. take the rear marker lights off, move the door mirrors forward,at the corner of the door( should have done that on mine). Maybe a few chrome touches, old style euro chrome mirrors and door handles. get the euro GTI front spoiler for sure. The jury is still out on polished race style gas caps though, unless your moving to under the rear light, then you gotta do it.
