Hi mate, Welcome, Looks a nice car, perhaps start with colour coding the. Side skirts and rear bumper, makes a huge difference in my opinion. I am also new to the forum, I don't have a mk5 yet but am looking to buy

Welcome  :happy2:

Car looks sweet.

Side and rear tints maybe  :jumpmove:

As the guys said colour coding would make a big difference but I like it as it is.

You cant tint (not windscreen) them but there is only a certain limit of how dark you can go to,  The rear sides and back can be as dark as you want
