This is the only other photo I have at the minute, Al.


GTIMad - I just found a nut and bolt thin enough to fit through the hole on the strap and long enough to reach through the tow point and used washers. Was a bit if trial and error finding the right bolt, mind.

Like it mate,
Think I may get one now.
Also a big fan of the floor mats, definitely look the dogs,

Think they are from here:
http://www.autostyle.co.uk/designer_car_mats.asp?idmake=66&selection=22098,3100
Not the cheapest, but look great quality,

Yup, Al - that's the site I got the mats from, mate.
Like you said they're not the cheapest but the quality reflects that I think.

So today I fitted genuine Carbon mirror housings, smoked indicators and, new open fogs with genuine Carbon. Oh and a carbon dipped emblem too. Some pics:














Need to get some photos in brighter weather
Comments welcome as always

The real carbon weave looks excellent - More even than OSIR's.

Are your fog panels (honeycombe, not the foglight surrounds) painted gloss?

....But will the fixing be strong enough to hold when an emergency crew tugs you out of the kitty litter? They don't hang about and will do whatever it takes even if it further damages your car.

Thanks Robin
Really pleased with the quality of them they are gloss finish tho not painted (I think).
With regards to you comment on the tow strap the fixing would never have held had I actually needed to be towed! :stupid:
It was just a cosmetic thing. Tow strap's off now and I've chnged out the red VW badge too. Like it more now.
