Yeah I agree does look better, breaks up the silver. Subtle tints might make it look even better.

Go a bit lower and get those rub strips done in black,it'll look awesome :cool:

Definately agree - you'll need tints :cool:

Post by: Waffs1984 on 10 September 2009, 09:09
Think the black pillars look quite good, my mums Passat has black pillars as standard and thats a saloon car, suit it well, although that is a glossy plastic type trim not sticky back plastic lol!

As for spraying your rub strips black i would say no, no and no again! Why have a GTi and then spray the bits to make it look like a 1.4?
