Thanks peeps,

Wheels are from a supplier near work we use him alot but i think they all would be the same finish,
im not usually a fan of reps but the quality is great, really shiney finish.

H&R's are from Motorsport wheels and its settled down abit now since pictures, quite abit lower than Sportlines.

As good as the gt front is I'd try a badgless grill and something like a cupra chin spoiler.
Makes for a really clean simple look

Not wishing to Spam, and welcome to the forum.

I went early, as i found it a touch bland.  I enjoyed seeing old and new faces, and would have travelled up for the good banter and laughs had on the night before.

I was seriously considering a Forum camping meet, say arrive sat, have a few ales and a BBQ and have a good day on Sunday.

May be worth considering.  maybe the next track day at Combe?  The ring is always worth camping too, lots of good reports.

Does look good mate. I use lime prime lite instead of poorboys.

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