Where did you get the front badge from btw? I'm due a new one and the Eurowagens one has caught my eye...

Looks impressive as always. Looks like the unit is finished!

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

This one....

Clips on to the original backing and is plastic, so no chipping like the painted ones do!  :happy2:

Nice one, think I'll try one of those. All I need now is a Golf GTI!

Thanks all!  :drinking:

No Mandy the rear is still silver. Not sure a Black one would look right as it just looks like a nose in the middle of the tailgate in black!  :laugh:

@ Rich, haven't decided on the wheels but have a couple of idea's floating around. It won't be much different from the standard! And I have a set of Eibach Sportlines fitted.  :wink:

No real updates today just some shameless pic whoring!  :pomppomp:

Wow , looking fantastic! They had one of these at my local VW Dealer up at Edinburgh , sold now though so never had a chance to have a nose round it - I dont think Ive ever seen a Pirelli in the flesh!
