This car looks awesome! nice subtle mods. some ED30/R32 rear lights would top it off  :drinking:

Really like the alloys colour, is it a dark grey or gun metal, and do they come like that?

Nice tips as well.  :happy2:

Cheers dude. They were powder coated by the previous owner. The receipt states metallic anthracite as the colour and they have a nice 'pop' in the sun!

Can I ask a question.

Was the interior grab handles easy to change, if so any notes on how you did it, The drivers side on mine is scuffed like your old ones and at some point I'll be getting some new ones. (I am a vw newbie and willing to take on small work myself).

(I have ordered the Haynes manual the tools, but thought I'd ask).

Its simple buddy. It just prises out. No screws or anything. Then unclip the switches and swap over into the new handle before connecting/re-fitting. Go and order the part from VW though. I paid less than £15. Ebay sellers all want £25+
