The rear valance looks so much better now, and it looked good anyway.  :smiley:

The mask is a no-brainer, but the bonnet maybe a wrap to far  :happy2:

....

I'm not trying to put you off vinyl'd door panels (B-pillars), Phil, but am just wondering how the vinyl will look when handled a lot, as it will be. The piano black stock door 'panels' at least polish up quite easily to lose the natural grease from human hands.

Just something for you to consider and not an opinion about whether you should or shouldn't.

as in any vinyl applications, its removeable and if it does fade from hand contact etc Robin , then if anything it'll protect the gloss underneath from scratch's etc. When i put it on as a test it looked very good and complimented the wing mirrors from a side perspective.  :drinking:

I dunno I quite like the idea of doing half the bonnet, following the lines of the front mask. Like this:



But I'm a bit concerned as to if the edges will begin to peel after a while.

That really sets off the car Steve :happy2:

If I were you I'd do the front mask and the pillars but wouldn't do the bonnet. :smiley:

The GTI badge looks mint on the rear too :drool:

and a Black GTi badge now to follow the trend.


Steve, you need to space those letters properly. I have a spare plastic template you can have which spaces the letters as they should be?  :happy2:
