Looks good with the colour coding, a bit lower and it would look great.

The wheels look like reps. Are they?

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

yep, if you've been washing bbs wheels for a while you can spot replicas a mile off :wink:

Genuine ...


The shape is slightly different as the the edges and some other detail
