      So paint your drums and calipers, or on my jetta i painted my calipers red and my drums black...you can barely tell, I love BBS wheels being a die-hard VW guy.

      Go with the 7 spoke.

      Those 5 spoked versions look like my hubcaps painted black.

      They're both nice, I just think that a 5 spoke opens it up and actually make the wheels look bigger versus a 7 spoke. All depends on the design though...these ones do too closley resemble the stock wheels.

      Strut bar? Where on earth did you find one for an 09'? I've looked everywhere!!! lol 300 is a good deal, I thought you would probably rub lol.

      Looks sick dude, I'm getting ready to take apart my headlights and do a bunch of stuff so I'll post pics since you have an 09' too. I'm gonna paint the inside black and see if I can pull than reflector out....maybe make eyelids.
