Just got the motor back from the paint shop and had to post a picture of it!

Here are some details:

07 GTI Stage 1 Bluefin
Carbonio CAI
Detroit Alloys
Coded skirts
ED30 rear valance with satin black inlay
ED30 front valance with satin black inlay
Satin black mirrors
Satin black smoothed grill with silver stripe
Satin black front and rear badges (rear not fitted yet)
H&R Springs
RCD 510
Arm rest
Retro fitted arm rest
Factory tints

Not sure what else to do to it - any ideas? :happy2:

cheers guys - what number plate ?!!  :wink:

wanted to tie the style in with the detroits, so went for the satin black mirrors, mask and front part of the Ed30 splitter. Toying with the idea of a satin black GTI badge.

I'm stuffed if i change the rims again!!  :laugh:

Looking great that mate,
Think it may have convinced me that I can get away with a black front VW badge, and probably carbon mirrors too.
Got any more pics?
What is it that you had done to it recently?

What about a red GTI badge where you fill in the red bit (so black lettering with silver outline)?

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

Just had the grill smoothed and painted, ED30 front valance and mirrors painted. Added a couple more pics.

Sounds like a plan! like it - will have to look into getting a cheap front red one - are mk4 anniversary ones ok?

Hey Gaz,

Got it painted at Kandy Paint Shop just off Manchester Rd - if you spot the sign for 'Taskers Nightclub' and go through the archway you will spot it. Ping us a PM if you need better directions  :happy2:
