When you say lip do you mean splitter? or the lip around the bottom of the GTi grill often reffered to as a lipstick...?

I believe you mean like so  :happy2:

The GTI splitter is 2 parts so left the middle part in standard plastic for contrast

Sorry yes I meant splitter that exactly how I think I want mine Simon thanks for that :happy2:. Any chance you've got a picture of it from the Front thanks a lot.

My splitter is sprayed red already just thinking of getting the centre part done gloss black.

Simon,

Can you remove the front spoiler and splitter without removing the front bumper?

Yep - easier to get off than on, took a lot of pulling and pushing - as it looks like it is too short but it ones push on eventually
