Gti rear valance - colour code?
« on: May 02, 2013, 10:25:01 am »
Bought a Gti rear valance for my GT and don't know whether to colour code the whole of it or just part of it......

The car is black by the way....when people have Red and leave the bottom bit black it looks awesome

Def a harder decision with a black car

Any pics of them done?

Cheers  :smiley:

Not the standard one. Pirelli / ED30 fully colour coded:



I dont think the standard one has enough contours to pull it off. KALPSN2000's looks good with the slight contrast.
How it should have been from the factory!

This looks the biz on red/white cars.

Any graphite blue owners got it done?

Part of it just like the photo above. A friend recently did it and looks great with definition especially in the flesh
VCDS cable HEX-USB+CAN. New but can do the basics including coding
