The stance of your car Robin is looking great in that photo!

Has that grey GTI had black bonnet vinyl done on the inside of the bonnet? Or is it just the lighting?

The grey GTI has a carbonfibre bonnet and various mods under it such as K04, Quaife, lots of mods by VW Racing.

Ahh very nice! Thanks RR! So he has the same bonnet as yourself, but has just painted over the carbon on the outer bonnet edges yes?

That's right - Same vented bonnet. He's also got Milltek quads [copies me a lot!] and guess what his previous car was..................







......Lotus Elise! [don't ask me which version]

Thanks again for that info! Sounds as if he would also be a valuable addition to this forum too!  :smiley:

Except that he doesn't have a lot of spare time. We met on TSN in 2005 - He kept quizzing me and we became good friends - He doesn't want to get into forums too much nowadays. I've occasionally sent him links.
