Do you want all the lower black? Ala standard GTi albeit not textured effect?

I think you should go wrap route, gloss or matte black mid section FTW!!

mine was wrapp and it was good , the trim round the tailpipes was nt perfect but ok , paint would be better but too permenant , the wrap can just peel off when you or a new owner dont want it any more  :happy2:
