Was going to say it needs lowering, so does mine  :sad1:

Rear lights look good, I need to re-do mine as there not dark enough, especially the inners

Love the colour though! What plans have you got?

Im guessing you have changed the wheel colour too. Looks good with Sahdow blue.  :smiley:

I actualy bought it like that, the dealer in birmingham had them refurbed that colour instead of the two colours they are originaly, apparently its cheaper.

any suggestions?

I guess you are looking at R32 skirts as they are primed and ready for colour.  If you hang on I am fitting GTi skirts to mine (well over 100 quid cheaper) and I will be prepping and colour coding them myself, so I will post a how to guide.  :happy2:

Yours does seem to sit high, I thought the GT had GTi springs fitted, mine sits just nice.  On the rear lights, I plan on tinting mine, I have the spray on order, I notice you masked along the bottom, as well as the indicator etc, is this what the R32/ED30 lights look like?  Not seen a set close up properly.....

i might go for the gti sideskirts, ill wait and see what yours looks like , as for the lights i just got some tinting spray for £6 and i masked the bottom bit of as its the reflective strip and theres alot of idiots on the road. although i dont think the r32 ones are liike this tbh

Asking for suggestions can be dangerous on this forum...

im thinking just a gti rear valance colour coded up from the crease, maybe r32 rear but i doubt it, i dont want to make it look faster than it is

Cosmetically, I have done my rear valance, I've also fitted and coded a GTi lower spoiler.  I am getting the insert for this and before fitting I may spray that and the lower part of the rear valance gloss black.  After fitting the skirts I will leave the exterior at that as I agree with you, although its running stage 1 software it's not exactly fast!
