Dropped spoiler off at bodyshop earlier, offered it up quickly and looked spot on  :happy2:

See the ED30 bumper all primed in the booth made me go weak at the knees  :signLOL:

Can't wait to get it back. Only question is do I keep the GTI grills on or revert back to the GT ones  :thinking:

I think I'm steering more towards the GT ones..

Oh and also picked up a fifth Helio.. will drop it off to get it matched up when I get some 215's which is proving hard to find a set with decent reviews..

Looks really smart, can't wait to get my gti headlights fitted.  :smiley:

It wouldn't be fun if it was easy, I just wish it wasn't this much fun.

Cheers Chris. Yeah I'm really happy with it. Didn't expect it to look this good tbh especially as I've never had GT grills on it since owning it.

Will make sure headlight beams are level when it's dark  :happy2:

No worries,

I really like the GT front end/grilles. You going to put a GT badge on as well?

Yeah they look good and goes very well with the splitter. I was thinking of buying the R-Line fog inserts but quite like how it is now so they'll go to the bottom of the list. Nah not putting any other badges on.

Good choice, I like the no badges look. Is it an ed30 splitter?

Nice looking car there!

Is it me or is that a standard GTI splitter not a ED30 one?

Haha, I don't believe it. All this time I had that bumper under cover and at the body shop thinking it had an ED30 splitter on it.
Tbh, I thought it was the same splitter but on a GTI but they weren't painted. But now I've compared the two it's fooking obvious  :doh:

On the plus side I do really like how it looks now. Although I will get a proper ED30 splitter and R32 rear to go on together at some point before its wrapped  :drinking:
