Thinking of changing my ED30 rear bumper and side skirts!!??
« on: February 04, 2010, 05:33:26 pm »
Ive had my car for 2 months now and love it. The thing is im not a fan of colour coding and my car came with a colour coded ED30 rear bumper and colour coded side skirts. Ive been thinking of having the lower front spoiler painted to match, but i really like the standard look of the MK5 GTI.

What should i do????

I'm not bothered on the colour of yours, I can get them sprayed easier than having to smooth mine out, then paint them.

If you're serious about doing it, PM me. I have a pair of side skirts in my garage and one them is brand new from the dealer (never fitted), so you need to tell me before I sand them down and colour code all my stuff.

Im not sure wether silver looks good colour coded??
I love this look!!

I do agree that the ED30 rear lower bumper looks better than the standard one tho, ive had my lower diffuser vinyl wrapped mat black. Maybe if i just change the side skirts back to standard??

I have seen these go for good money on e bay, but always missed out.
I did buy some candy white sideskirts a while ago off a member here who had put standard crappy plastic ones back on. Really I don't know why anyone would want the standard black ones. In that pic they looked alright, but then look at Greenhouses pic,
And for a bit of pic whoring, mine which I got back today:
