Bought r32 rear bumper. But don't think I want middle twin exhuast but just a standard Gti one on the left side.

Like this



I have one just like that.. I didn't want the twin center exit exhaust either....mine also has a bcs exhaust finishing it of nicely.

That looks good mate. A bit more modern look but not as sporty as r32. Same colour as mine as well. If you could post more pictures of the rear I would much appreciated :happy2:

Same. I think I would leave mine red or smooth them completely.

Butchered my dash and was running like this for a week!  :grin:



But don't worry, after being inspired by Martin's gorgeous hydro-dipped centre console I did the same to mine!

Before:



After:







Top props to Adrain at Hyrdro Graffix for doing the trims as they look the bees knees!

Fitted my Gulfstream footrest cover  :smiley:



And back in place:



Very happy with it, wish I'd done it ages ago!!

Doing this tomorrow! What screws must be removed to allow the foot rest panel to come out?

Here is a guide that I used to do it, shows exactly where they are:

For reference, I found a 5.5mm drill bit to be the perfect size for doing the holes  :happy2:

Many thanks!! Was a doddle!!
