need some new mods for the gti..

[Jayy26]

Getting bored off my car now :/ need some subtle simple mods to make it my own :/

looking at the jetta side front fog covers? or shall i get the open grills and paint the honey comb gloss black aswell?
getting my ed30 rear bumper colour coded aswell as side and front splitter..

any other ones people can think off?

*Smoothed front plate recess and shorter plates but make sure they follow the legality if you do this.
*LED puddle lights look nice if you fancy that but beware its a chunk of money to throw at them but i suppose you do get   heated wing mirrors too so may be your cup of tea.
*ED30 front splitter.
*LED rear plate lights.
*RCD or RNS 510 headunit
*Open fog grills for more cool air if you need it

I do like them,may do it and use the sticker idea a few people i know do :) also the smooth bonnet but thats alot off money :(

how much roughly? and i think i already have heated mirrors :/

*ED30 front splitter.
Little bit out off my price range as soon as i get the paint done,,been quoted £220 for rear bumper and side skirts and spliiter

*LED rear plate lights.
I think they look chavvy? any pictures?
 
*Open fog grills for more cool air if you need it
Got one already with carbon surround...dont know if i want the jetta ones? or keep these and paint them gloss black instead off the boring grey..

cheers for that

Go for wrapping the interior inserts using glitter black! you'll be the only one with it on! I just did my mates in chrome looks insane..

Does anybody have views on the led number plate lights? I feel that there too bright and not oem :/
Juts fitted some led sidelights looks good but are currently odd with my main :(

I got mine for €12 with shipping included. A couple of months later I could get a spare set for €10. Unbelievable prices...

OEM+ all the way! You can enjoy your ride a lot more.

We shall see in a few more years when my minty original example is more sought after than any modded example

I don't think of my car as a money investment but more as a way of enjoying myself driving it. I bought it new intended to keep it as long as I enjoyed it, not to sell it after a few years. Modding it has allowed me to enjoy it more and more.
