Yes Porsche's look good in Martini Racing livery but they aren't a Mk5 Golf either.

So I take it the general thought is Porsche - yes , lancia - yes and golf - no , fair enough just was looking at possible vinyl options as I can't afford a respray and thought this might be a good happy medium

What did look good was Cocopops's Gulf liveried Mk5. It was a Silver car to start with but the Gulf colours worked really well with it.

Do a search for the Superchips Rolling Road Day. :happy2:

Basically if your car is white & looks sporty AND you are into that sort of stuff then i don't see how the martini racing stripes can fail. I've seen worse cosmetic mods on a golf.

Not for me though but i'd love to see pictures if you do.

Like the Martini style. Looks fantastic on white and silver.
Unfortunately I have a black GTI. I should think of 'JSP'.
