What is the official colour of the red grille stripe?
« on: September 15, 2010, 04:07:57 pm »
As Greeners cant remember what colour he painted the lip spoiler on my car with, I need to know what colour the grille stripe is?
We are unsure if its Tornado or Mars Red?
Thank you please! :happy2:

ROFL! Surely the only person who'd know is Greeners. Can he not ask the bodyshop where he got it done?

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

It's Tomato Red  :evilgrin:

If you're px-ing or selling to a dealer rather than privately, just wrap it in black vinyl if Nath has lost his memory.

Remind me tomorrow Mark and I'll give my mate a bell who worked there when they painted it (back in 2007!!  :rolleye: ).

Oh and Stealth, I just handed the car to a friend who owned a bodyshop and asked him to paint the lip red, so how would I know for sure what colour he painted it?  :P

Twice i've been caught out by your images at work Robin! I look like perve of the year!

I'm going to start a petition to make sure you have to wear a 'NSFW' sign round your neck!  :grin:

Do you not think that sending George Michael to prison, is just like sending a kid to live in a sweet shop, or a girl to live in a Jimmy Choo shop!

What were they thinking!  I reckon he got nicked on purpose!

a slighty more on topic question guys...

Does anybody know if the red stripe is available separately from the stealers or do you have to buy the whole grille section? Im sure mine at 3 years old is slowly fading pink...

cheers
