r32 for me, LED's look great on lighter coloured cars and especially white and red but not on black for some reason.  Think there is too much white on them?

Completely agree - they look odd on black cars.

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

I have the LED rears on my Black GTI and personally I think they look the nuts. Form follows function and all that plus they're a superior light...more visible etc. I'll try and get a pic and post. Especially if RR's tech guy can sort out wiring in the inner sections to become active they'll be even better. Correct, yes they're expensive but then again what isn't when it comes to modding cars? Only down side is your backside will be doing the hokey cokey when you cut them apart to swap lenses :laugh:
