Here's my `07 GTI. All my mod's are in my Sig. Just did all the mods over the winter after paying the car off.
We are all jealous over here over the choices you all have there; ed30, scirocco, non US version golf r, etc.
I've mostly done function mods to date, and plan to make some form changes; body, paint, etc.

Really nice taste you all have.

-

I have yellow bulbs and Laminex yellow fog film from ECS tuning;

I tried just the film first, but they looked just kinda off white when turned on at night. So I added the yellow bulbs at that point.
I have yellow Nokya bulbs installed now in the daytime(high beam) flashers. They look really nice both when you're flashing someone
to get them going and when they are off. I'll go take some pics and get them posted. And thanks for the kind remarks...

Here are the new pics of the front with the yellow bulb, drl flashers. Sorry about the glare;

They are not on and up close the yellow doesn't reflect into the housing like it does when you back away a bit.
-
The front looks really nice in that last pic.
Though the open fog vents are a bit weird, did you make them open ones yourself?

Yes , I did open them myself. We discussed them in this thread;
http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,30607.msg383153.html#msg383153
They're not for everyone, just as the squared look of the other ones didn't turn me on...

....They only look strange because we are unfamiliar with that look. Personally I think they look much better than the OEM square cutouts. I considered how to cutout my original ones but didn't think of creating round holes, otherwise I'd have done the same. They've been cut out cleanly and so look good imo.

My wife and I are going to drive down the coast to spend a few days hiking in the redwoods this week.
I will make time to, hopefully, get a photo op in. I think the car in the redwoods could make for some awesome pics...

Love the fog light grills, Cheap way of modding the originals but still look great,
Shame i brought some high climate ones from VW otherwise i would be doing this.

Thanks, I love to diy when I can so I can put the money into other mods.
The front vw badge I did as well after seeing one on the tmtuning site.

Thanks 'jaywoo' for posting the link. I've started the summer term this past week, and been buried in stuff to do.
