Cool on some cars. Greeners had them on his ED30 and it looked fantastic.

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

Uncool on most cars and especially hatches IMO, like others have said on evos, scoobys, off road vehicles they are ok.

If you like them get them stuck on.

I have them on mine and I think they look cool. They don't look like scooby/evo ones. They look smaller then those ones. :)

Of course they look cool plus they stop all those nasty stones chipping the under-seal away!

Front and rear for me

Cool on a GTI or Black Eddy, uncool on any other colour, just my 2 pence worth.  :happy2:

Oh and don't do this.....

Stealth was right, I had them on my Ed30 but they were fronts only and had been colour coded to the car so were the mutts nuts!  :innocent:
