Ok well a couple of small changes as money is tight at the moment and i really need wheels and suspension lol !
So first was the GT(I) or D badge situation
So as a new GTD from a mk6 is around £30 i decided to opt for a cheap solution and as i had already taken off the "I" i therefore decided to hack off the black bit of plastic to smarten it up for the moment and to be fair it doesnt look too bad and is fine for a while until i am a bit more flush !

Then i decided to smooth up the rear end by removing the badges, took me quite a while as i dont own a heat gun so using some thread and some elbow grease to get rid of the stick residue left me with this which looks loads better i think

Then i fitted some Lamin X to the front fogs to give it a bit of a Euro feel and i had already got the car coded to run with indicators on with sidelights at 40% brightness so here is a pic with them all on

Pic of them on with the sidelights and indicators - although i prefer the yellow when they are off (which is 99% of the time so thats all good)

Next i have ordered a gecleant glass stopper so i can remove the rear wiper to complete the smoother looking rear end and i have also ordered the parts to allow the boot pop coding change to open up the boot all the way when i press and hold the button the remote, oo and i have ordered a new stalk so i can retro fit cruise control as i had that in my last 2 cars and do really miss it.
More updates to follow as and when they happen
I think the next thing will be wheels and suspension and maybe some side skirts we shall see
