You need it to match something else. Have a look at delboy's thread - blue interior with blue stripe.

Others have had them done in white, yellow, green (to match green brake calipers) and black (for that stealth look).

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

for some reason pink is really appealing to me  :grin:
