The only problem with this for me is it wont look like a GTI anymore. You can spot a GTI a mile away with the dark mask.Its one of my favourite views of the GTI.

It might look like a R 32 in silver nothing wrong with that though.

Here is a close up of the carbon Mask

I've noticed it for a long time - Our TC is a good photographer. He has a particularly good eye for composition and use of colour.

Ebay. :happy2:

Post by: Top Cat on August 20, 2009, 10:24:13 pm: OEM plus do the genuine badges. :happy2:

But you can also get them from Ebay like Phil says but the colour fades pretty quick. Saying that they are only cheap you could just buy a few and change when spent. :drinking:
