I've used it and it's crap. Lasts about 30 mins. Even AG Bymper care is better than Vinyl and Rubber.

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

Managed to give the car a clean and thought I'd show off my handywork! What you guys think?

Just a question while Im on the subject, if you look to the right of the badge you can see a silver plate through the honeycomb, I think its what holds the radiator on. Its really noticable and im thinking of painting it with some high temp black paint. Ive never noticed this on any other gti, just mine! Has anyone else?

I can't say I have. Unfortunately I'm 900 miles away from my car so I can't even look!

Maybe it's just me being paranoid because I know it's there and my focus is just drawn to it! Or maybe I've got OCD!  :signLOL:
