A nice car,and it is hard to make white GTI's look bad, though I am not a fan of both parts of the rear lower bumper being white.Any plans to change it?

LoL @ Clean. Those pics were from before xmas time when weather was uber crap.
Haven't got any recent pics as I haven't really seen it or driven it much since xmas lol my current mode of transport is zilch or crutches in emergencies.

As for lower part of bumper, I bought the car exactly as it is in the pics. What difference is there in Ed30 rear & front splitter? And mainly how much are they lol

Post by: Top Cat on April 01, 2011, 10:13:01 pm: You dont want to get a Edition 30 rear bumper, they look great but people will think you car is just a copy. You need a R 32 custom moulded rear. with a full Blueflame zorst to compliment it.
And luckily for you i have one for sale at the end of May. :laugh:

Guess this is the point where I ask, how much? (bumper & exhaust?) :signLOL:

Post by: Top Cat on April 01, 2011, 10:45:30 pm: If you can walk round here and pick it up it's yours free of charge, seeing as i know your leg is fubared, i would be looking for £ 230 for the bumper + £100 for the carbon insert diffuser, though if you did not want this i would supply you with the standard plastic diffuser free. This is the only R 32 bumper like this in the country. :wink:
The BlueFlame Zorst is a full turbo back custom jobbie, and would want £ 400 + your standard zorst as a swap. :happy2:

Plenty to chew on their Do some research those are decent prices. :drinking:
