Just updated the post with some info... I posted the pics from my phone and then the forum crashed  :confused:

Erm.. yeah in the end I'll get the lights.

Need to sort out the paint first.

The CHs definitely fill the arches better. I reckon they'll look awesome in the same colour as the pescaras

unfortunately they arent proper black editions with the polished lip.

someone before me had them refurbished and then painted a silver lip.

my plan is to refurb them in the pescara colour.

If the rear is too stiff you end up decreasing the grip at the rear... it can get messy

Lovely looking car - thought I recognised the user name from 911uk??  and DW.

Just picking up a Mk5 today myself - not sure if I will have it looking anywhere near as good as yours though.

probably me :) I use the user name everywhere (even though I'm not actually a star wars fan lol... the name just stuck)

The photos flatter it. Close up it needs a lot of work. Thats what the rest of this year will be about.

thanks though.. its getting there now. just a few more little bits.
