How much was it to smooth the bonnet?

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Are you talking about the bonnet notch Stealth, couldn't see anything else in the thread with bonnet smoothing involved?

If so it was virtual trickery by me.  :signLOL:

^^^yeah the bonnet notch above where the badge should be. Thought you had it filled in and painted over.

swapped the reverse reflector from old lights, decided a fog light wasnt that important!  :signLOL:




....Someone please correct me if I'm wrong but I think you are legally obliged to have a rear foglight on cars under a certain age.

Personally I like and much prefer seeing 2 reversing lights but I think the MOT blue meanie might fail you for no rear fog. Also, still with my boring Captain Sensible hat on, insurance might get very wriggly in the event of some types of accident claim such as someone rear-ending you in fog and saying they didn't see you and the investigators then knowing why they didn't see you. Not worth the risk imo.
