Toms Rising Blue *FIRST POST*

Post by ThatLadTom »

Afternoon fellas,

This is my first post on here so please be nice :yes:
I recently purchased a 09 plate 2.0L TDI in rising blue and I love it!

Although it's fairly old in comparison to some of the motors on here it still gets the attention it deserves.
The only thing I need to get sorted is a little bit of lacquer that's started to peel above the rear drivers side wheel arch and the wheels could do with respraying.

I'm also not sure if the car has been lowered as it has been mentioned a few times.

Let me know your thoughts on if I should keep the dark charcoal looking alloys or go for a different colour.

Looks good mate, same as mine but i have silver wheels. Looking to go anthracite though... By the look of it i would say it has definitely been lowered, these as standard come higher than snoop dogg...
Any future plans?

Has been lowered for sure.

As for wheels, do what you want.

Hope you enjoy

I'm not enitely sure what I want.. the wheels need sanding down and repainting so I'm just wondering what sort of colours would suit it or if I'm best of keeping to the same colour as I've currently got.

WOW - what a babe! I love the colour of it. The name of it's 'rising blue', right?

I get what you're saying, but it's quite a personal thing so you are the only person who can really decide. Have a look on Google images and see what you may like.
