Time for another update.... This time in the shape of some more interior bits from day one of owning the car i have never liked the the exposed cup holders and the open lidless storage (compartment) so decided to get that replaced with the bushed steel storage compartment looks so much better ive been told they were on the very first Mk5 gti's but then they stopped putting them in due to cost.
Second job was to replace the open cup holders and replace with the much better sliding cup holder..what a difference.......

Next on the list was the front grill ...once removed i found out that it's not a genuine item ..but a good quality after market part the only things letting it down was the red stripe that had turned more orange and the number plate holder was broken in 2 places ...my plan was take a chance buy a grill off ebay and swap the parts i needed over...also had to buy a genuine GTI badge as that's a must.
new replacement parts......................
