Toying with the idea of...
« on: December 08, 2011, 08:20:40 pm »
I've toyed with getting rid of the RS the past few months but after driving it regularly recently, I have fallen in love with it all over, there is nothing that comes close for the money.

I'm gonna make a few changes in the new year and I may get it wrapped, what are your opinions on these two. The wheels on the green one are similar to mine so it would look preety much identical  :drool:

As you're asking and I'm always brutally honest and say what I think, regardless!....

I love that green body wrap - It's a very subtle green and far more individual and unusual than the obvious matt black look.

I don't like chromed wheels though........   On anything! And I think it would be very much at odds with a matt wrap.

Just my opinion  :happy2:

I think you've already got the best colour for the TTRS - think it looks fantastic.

Just my opinion but i think wrapping it would spoil what is a stunning colour

But we'd all be very boring if we liked the same things

Very true, but I have had it a year now and looking for a change looks wise, something that is going to look unique and different. I'm sure I will get bored of the wrap after a year or so, with a bit of hairdryer tratment Sepang will be back  :happy2:

Love the green. Very subtle.

The chrome rims are awesome but don't go with the matte black IMO.

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

yes, good idea just sand it down.  :laugh:

The thing is with matt wraps, they need looking after, scratching easy  and showing all marks. And you are not renowned for car care.  :wink: I reckon you would be ripping it off after 2 months. I reckon spend the dosh on some nice go faster goodies.

Not so sure about that one TC, the matte green is a little bit more subtle, that is properly out there  :surprised:
