R32 Front Question
« on: February 17, 2012, 01:31:20 pm »
I am considering getting an R32 front bumper for my GTI, but i am thinking of painting the chrome grill black, but i would also like to have the stripe on there like i have on the gti, its on a black car so the grill would be gloss black like it is as standard, so a bit of a hybrid bumper  :signLOL:
Has anyone done this before? if so pics?

Sounds a bit OTT, the strip would have to be painted on or vinyl.
Do like the matt black R32 grille on the bumper though.

Afraid not, completely different bumper. The closest you could get would be a jetta grille on the GTI bumper
