Thanks for the comments!
The interlagos look better in the flesh as they really fill the arches and have a muscular look when viewed in 3D, they look much more butch on a Golf than on a Scirocco due to filling the arches better. Give the GTI a bit of a dinky toy look.

I really like the Black Detroits too, but the Interlagos came up at a really good price so it had to be done! I've got the choice of which to use now depending on mood.  :pomppomp:

There's a local (to me) VAG meet on Sunday so hope to get some proper shots of the car then. The ones in this thread were just taken quickly as I feel a bit of a tit photographing my car!!! The weather has been pants this week so the car's been tucked up in bed all week. Will make an effort at the weekend!!!  :smiley:

As the Golf needed a good wash and polish after sitting in a Gatwick car park for a couple of weeks followed by an early morning thrash back to Devon, I thought I'd take some photos of the results and to show the recently fitted LED tail lights as supplied by stokeballoon and SteveP (and thanks for fitting them and coding the ECU Dave  :happy2:  :smiley: ).

What? No pics of them lit up? Do they dance?

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

I'll get some of them lit up when it gets a bit gloomier. Despite it not looking so, it was actually very bright when I took the photos and it was hard to see the lights lit.
No they don't dance, just the front Xenons when fitted.
Well, my rear fog light does a dance of it's own, but that's another story!  :grin:

Looking very nice ( I know your twin brother on the mk6 forum  :wink: :wink: )

p.s. I like the detroits by the way..... first time I've seen your car with those on. I wouldn't mind a set of those if I can pick some up for at reasonable price.

I get around a bit. Used to have the same user name over there but lost my log in details some years ago so re-registered under a completely different handle.
My Detroits are in the for sale section but the price isn't pretty reasonable  :grin:
Funny enough I've recently been half thinking about getting them re-finished like Monza Shadows and selling my original almost new Monza 17s instead. That way the Detroits can go with the car when I eventually sell it and I can have some space back in my garage which is bursting at the seams.

Owl yes.... seen your wheels for sale. I would buy them if I had the spare cash and hadn't just forked out on the interlagos wheels. I can't even trade you my interlagos for your detroits as you've got those bloody wheels as well  :smiley: I'll just have to wait until your desperate and make you a ridiculas offer then  :grin:

In all fairness I've had the interlagos on mine for a few weeks now and they really have grown on me. I'm still tempted to get them re-finished in a anthracite grey colour. Not sure if it would be a waste of money though?

I wouldn't object to another set of Interlagos!  :grin:

I'm not sure about how they'd look in anthracite either. As you've got a white car it could well work, nice contrast and all that. I've seen a couple of sets done in black and a set done in mid-grey.

Yeh its probably a waste of money getting them re-finished in a different colour tbo. I shall put the money then towards the "BeezerDiesel Detriot Fund"  :grin:
