That black vinyl roof works really well in the flesh - You can't tell it's been added (unless you were to get a step ladder and a magnifying glass!). It suits Candy white perfectly imo.

What are your thoughts guys on the GTI textured side skirts wrapped.  :chicken:
TC, i bought a reel of white tape on ebay am just waiting for it to come, but i plan on mocking up the side skirts with it.
but only cover down to the rear bit to where the line is before it then goes up (stone chip bit) if that makes sense. as ours have that line in and eddys/r32s are flush all the way down.
i want to stand back from it and veiw from a distance, if it looks ok, then have them sprayed, and at the same time have the front lip done but leave the mouth bit black. just a thought nothing to loose, just a play.
PS, your indicaters (rear) do flash LED, look good

Looks great Matt!  :happy2:

What happened to having the bonnet done?

Mate that wrap looks soooo goood, I think you should extend it onto the bonnet.

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