eBay hunting for you brought up these, which I know aren't trim rings but might suit. link I don't get why these are so expensive, but I'm guessing they're what you're after. link I thought I'd saved a shop from eBay's details for trim rings that were affordable, but looking in my info it appears not, which is a nuisance because they did have sizes from 13" to 16"... but this is a different shop that does the 14" trims at £20 a pop. Gan Green Hot Rod ShopAnd of course there's always Limebug who sell a range of Mooneyes stuff. Looking forward to what you've described on those wheels, and seeing the new paint, should sit well on the Passat. |

But if you paint it, you can use it to advertise your work.

Don't think the weather is helping with much. Some really good ideas though and some inspiration for my Audi.
