A couple of gloss black touches while its in for repair - opinions

[Tfsi_Mike]

Want everyones opinion.

I think it would look good if I had the fog grills painted gloss black and the lower front grill.

Should I have it done while its in for repair?

I think you'd have to do the top centre grill too (bit with the S logo) otherwise it might look a bit odd!

That's already gloss black?

That's already gloss black?

In that case ignore the above.

Should look good... but i think it would be very susceptible to stone chips!

Sounds good to me 

[vRS_Pagey]

Definitely.  

I plan on doing the lower part of the GTi rear valance, front spoiler insert and maybe the outer grilles gloss black on the GT.

If the insurance is paying then do it, your front splitter is gloss black already and the grill.

Doesnt do it justice but a quick iPhone snap

Thanks mate    Still haven't had chance to get decent pics, she's still in the dealer as they can't maanage a simple job

They look like they have done a good job on them though! I was going to do mine gloss but now leaning towards satin black. I want black side skirts on my golf and my brother thinks plastic black side skirts will look rubbish if I had gloss grilles and stuff so satin it is!

No, I love the paint.  Its a headlight swap they've cocked up, twice 

[JoeDarKa]

Are yours slightly smoked / tinted? Did they order normal ones by any chance?

[Tfsi_Mike]

Mine are quite dark as standard.  Wanted my LHD German headlamps swapping back to my RHD English ones.

Ahh, fair enough! When is it due back? Get some proper pics up when you do!
