Thank you for your comments...

B3n: yes it all worked out in the end, my friend's dad who sprayed the bumper fitted the exhaust for me too, didn't cost me anything either which was a bonus.

I was actually thinking maybe a gti roof spoiler to replace the standard, nothing too drastic. Not in a rush for it though so just keeping my eyes peeled to see if anything comes up.

Might be on my own here, but I actually quite like the 'golf' badge, lol. I agree the '2.0 tdi' part is questionable... Have thought about removing it and replacing it with just the 'gt'.

No, I brought the side skirts off ebay (think they are gti/ r32) and had them colour coded. Had to have the rear bumper colour coded too, the black plastic is just not attractive!

yeah i hate the black plastic, its something you expect from the bottom of the range, not the GT and GTI models.

i think you should keep the rear badges, the 2.0 TDI engine is a beauty  :congrats:

I didn't manage to find out what reducer size I needed so never got one, think they just welded it.

I was expecting the chop off point to be like yours, between the backbox and the centre box (not sure if that's what it's called!). Instead they cut the pipe after the centre box bit. I don't think it should be a prob tho but what do I know, lol! All I do know is that I seem to be getting bigger puffs of black smoke...  :signLOL:

Thanks John! Great thing about the laser blue is you only need minimal effort to make it look good!
