Post by: benje on December 22, 2009, 06:53:45 pm
hi, have a edition 30 in tornado red, been thinking there is too much red on the back and wondered what the lower section would look like in black, like a matt, motled finish like it was plastic, anyone done this and any pics please, how diid you do it, paint or vinyl, thanks in advance

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:
