They are on... just in time for the rain to wash off the blue from the lettering.
Only one hiccup being the 'high quality' locking nut on the last wheel rounding off. Apparently quite common on VAG vehicles. Managed to get it off in the end with some help from a mechanic friend. It's fubared however so i'll be needing a new bolt and key...
Edit: while I had the fronts off I pulled the arch liner out in order to do a bit of sound proofing, alas there was no need. When I tapped on the steel there was no ringing or tinniness just a solid thud which is a sure sign that it's pretty well soundproofed already, from the inside. Good work Volkswagen!!
