I hate the B5. 5 passat rear lights and the ones on mine are in poor condition so I started looking for B5 ones to fit. I found this one on euro car parts brand new in box for £3.02

Last of the big spenders! I do kmow what you mean though. Very much liked my B5 passat until it cooked its head gasket!

Reversed it into the wall on the drive the other day, very annoyed

As I've done nothing with it recently except drive it I feel I'm letting it go a bit. The bumper prang has really annoyed me, it's filthy inside and out and there's an airbag fault as the light has come on. I also got a massive crack appear on the windscreen which I got changed.
Need some time to sort the wheels out and a little more lows 😁

Finally got some tester tyres on the 18" steelies. I was going to go Moon eyes yellow with them but not sure now.

Opinions on colours for the wheels is Grateley appreciated.
Photoshops also.
The front will be dropped some more and 15mm spacers on the rears.
Some sort of centre caps needed also 🤔

Where did you get the 18" steels?? I'd be tempted to go for one of the VW darker silver colours

Moon rock silver has a touch of bronze in it, nothing over the top but looks great in the sun.

I think that looks spot on with the trims as it is.

Trims on IMO. Really emphasises the size. Otherwise it’s just steel wheels to my eyes.

^^^ That was my thought, too tbh.
A darker shade of yellow as a contrast to the green would work, too IMHO.
I doubt that some stainless trim rings would be available in that size?

In that case 16" steelies would have been the better choice!
