badge painted



That looks superb Johnston.

Did you do this yourself or get it done pro?
Was it involved? I've been meaning to wrap mine (in the exact same colour scheme as you have) for yonks now but haven't got the courage to attack it  :ashamed:

thanks for the comments folks, thats the gti badge i got from parts for euro, and regarding the vw i had it done FOC from a mate that works in a body shop, should be easy enough to do yourself but you will need the newer 2 part rear badge, just a case of removing the badge (its stick on so no need ro remove the whole mechanism) smooth the under part(black plastic bit) spray it to match car, rub down the vw embelm spray it black and then stick it all back together again  :happy2:

Coming along beautifully. What's next?  :party:

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

Thanks for the comments  :happy2:
Got the mirrors from ebay, think it was from a seller in taiwan, but there actually really good quality and really easy to fit  :happy2:
To answer you question stealthwolf, next will be boost & oil pressure/temp gauges and revo stage 1. will eventually be going for 2+ but going to get stage 1 untill i get bored of it then go for the stage 2+

Had my engine cover painted and stuck on a r8 oil cap.. and also got some carbon b pillars on today... will get some pics up in a min  :happy2:
