sprint blue s3

i knew somone would pull me up on the sunstrip 
i think it breaks up it up a bit as the mk5s have huge windscreens!! will probz have to come off next year for mot as its quite big!!

if the sun strip is in the wiper arch then yeah it has to come off for the mot...You like it thats the main thing

thanks mate. i am not fitting a ed30 splitter, i have bought the gti lower splitter as mine was missing when i bought the car and the front will be colour coded apart from that bit. i used detailers tape to mask up the lights, ( its just blue masking tape)

Looking good!!!   

Whenever i see a grey i always think should i of ??!!!

Blue graphite will have to do!

[RedRobin]

When thats done there will be no more visual mods. as i will be saving for a milltek TBE, evoms v-flow & engine cover, piston dv & forge spacer, revo stage 2.

As always C&C & any suggestions welcome

....The EVOMS engine cover is a royal pain in the arse to take on and off. There's folks here who have given up and sold theirs on.

I modified mine:  http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,11702.0.html

....But I think it's okay if it's transparent - At least my graded tinted blue one has always passed MOT.

thanks for the replys robin, i didnt realise the evoms cover was such a flawed design, think i myt just go for the modified oem cover now (discovered from a link within your link)
and with regards to my sunstip, the place that fitted it said it should pass an mot as you can see through it, but my mate said he failed with the same type strip so...... suppose i will just have to wait and see, mot is a full year away so wont be worrying about it!

wel just home from offshore and thought i would updated my post.  had the car colour coded..... sorry about the quality of the pics, my missus took them lol

[jacko78]

Really nice car that. Looks really good, excellent choice on the asthetics. Well done

[divweir]

are your front tint legal  70%

[gti265]

they look about the same as mine, and aparently mine are :)

[divweir]

mine looked ok to me but not to the police got a 30£ fine   and i bought it from a main dealer  not saying yours is just a wee heads up

[stealthwolf]

Looks even better now it's colour coded.

I'm liking that  I genuinely hope you haven't used any silicone based gel's etc in that spruce up a few weeks ago prior to colour coding....
