I saw it today for the first time and i like it! Still not sure on the side skirts, i need to get it lowered. The painter said he can do them body coloured free of charge if i decide to change colour!

Any comments?

Think the skirts and wing mirrors  need coded mate. the skirts dont tie in well with the side on rear bumper being silver. love the twin pipes tho and is that an ed30 rear valance. looks cool and way better

The skirts will get repainted soon! Mirrors are staying black! Yep, ed30 rear bumper with gti exhausts!  :happy2:

I think if i had the black plastic GTI rear bumper and black front splitter, they would look fine!

Yeah, its going back in soon to colour code the side skirts. The lower grilles, mirror base plates and rear wash wipe are going satin black!

Definatly go colour coded with the skirts, the rest will look good satin. If you dont mind me asking where did you get it sprayed and how much?

I got my rear bumper smoothed and sprayed 200 quid but not to happy with the results its pitted or summet in the paint but not the laquer as to touch its smooth.
