I hated those when i saw everyones in chrome, but the black looks really good!

Your wheels also look good. What size and width are they?

Thanks
Ok Mopac is a local parts shop that we have in BC but I can give you the link to the maufacture website
http://www.inprocarwear.com/
I didn't have these ones on at the car wash, they were the 4 leaf clover style ones and they didn't come with the inner lights as well
They were expensive, like $300.00 including the express shipping I paid extra for. but he had a display model and the quality compared to the ones I bought off ebay was much better,
The wheels are 18x8" TSW Crofts with the gunmetal finish.
They don't make them in a 5x110 but because there hub centric we were able to use a floating lug system wich was an extra $100 and gives you 2.5mm of room to play with.
The rims are 5x112. I've had them on there for a few months now and they haven't given the slightest problem. The guy at the shop I bought them from also had the floating lug on his GTI and sayed they haven't given him any issues or any other customer they have sold them to for that matter.
As rims go they were average price I think it was 250-275 a rim, Canadian

The outer ones are the same as stock but the inner ones do stick out about an inch farther than the stock ones did. It was the only way to get them to match with the black surrounding material. They flow nice with the other ones so its really not all that noticable, plus i'll take the extra inch in trade for all 4 lights working, all 4 plus the middle act as brake lights as well

You can always tint them and that should reduce the intensity.
I might have to get these in the Ruby Red or Bermuda Black can't decide just yet
Vote!

They pulled me over for my license plate light not working.
Are these DOT/SAE approved tail lights?
Then at least you won't get a fine for using non-approved lighting

Heu Spun...I just ordered a set from Mopac. Are they going to have that rapid blinker issue LED's tend to have?
