After 2 n half hr drive this morning I pulled in to a garden centre carpark looking for some guy called Olly to purchase some xenons, waiting in the carpark was a nice reflex silver MK5 and turns out it was stuart-88 waiting to also purchase some GTI parts. Always good to meet other forum members. So, across the road this guy appears from a gated house with some parts in his hands, so I drove over.
I could not have been happier when he returned with these beauties.





I then drove another hour to @Usual Suspect to get them fitted and coded.



About an hour later black GTi light out and fitted and coded xenons, thanks Raz  :happy2:
Turns out my car has a low line CECM and Raz had to work his code magic to overcome the xenons flashing.

Result after 350 mile round trip, a nice and fresh front end.



Thanks for looking in.

Not a great fan of the chrome on my Jetta but due to the xenons i figured I would play with the grill today.
Started with this


Ended up with this



Quite ok with it for a while

Thanks for looking in.

I'd leave the whole grill black (gloss black like you have or matte black like GT Sport have).

I prefer the chrome VW badge as well. :smiley:

I think I prefer the chrome slats but I'd do all of them not just the top like it is now.
If you don't like chrome what about doing them in reflex silver?

Thanks guys
Shoduchi, i need to change the front with the xenons being chrome.

Jaffa, hmm wrap them in silver is another option. I might replace the other 4 lowers for chrome first, then see what it looks like  :happy2:
