Go for the bronze, they will look stunning. I also have bronze wheels on my dynamic grey ST 280, I love them! Good luck with your choice

It's quite curved but still flat enough on that spot and I don't think this should cause any problem, we'll see.

I ordered them on vag247.com, couldn't find them cheaper.
Is the registration a sort of temporary one due to you 'exporting' the car out of Germany? It looks different to regular ones, particularly the dated area on the red background - it doesn't even have a 'D' marker on it.
Yes, these were temporary license plates. We had to go to an office (KFZ-Zulassungstelle) where we applied for export plates. They registered the plates and the insurance in my name, and then I could drive it for a month. That gave me enough time to arrange the necessary paperwork and have the car inspected in Belgium. After that, my insurance company could register the car and put Belgian plates on it. That only took four business days.
Hi @MadAsh85,
I fitted a dashcam on 2 of my previous cars after I had a little accident with an 8 year old girl driving her bike and crossed the road in front of me. It scared the **** out of me but she didn't get hurt and all I got was a scratch on my GTI. That was the trigger to install one for me but luckely I never needed the footage as evidence since that accident.
From what I heard it's up to the police/judge to accept the footage as a proof, but I guess it just calms my mind for now.
I do love the bronze/copper wheels and it sure would stand out and look good, but I tend to go for the black ones because I'm not a person who likes to draw too much attention. I still got some months to think about it, will order them in March/April.
Happy Holidays!
Well, that comment aged like butter
Just picked up a second hand set of Motec Ultralight MCR2 19x8.5J with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S and made some quick shots. The weels look good but I still need to get used to the color.
They are 3.5kg / 7.7lbs lighter than the stock wheels and I absolutely notice this weight loss in the handling of the car so I'm very happy about that. The stance is also improved because they sit about 12mm / 1/2" wider due to the lower offset and wider rim.
I think the car just needs to drop a little, not to much though.
