Hoovered the car. Can't believe how dirty it gets in just 6 weeks.

Also couldn't understand how my rear mats wouldn't sit flat. They were just slightly out. The PDI guys had obviously put the wrong sides in  :rolleyes:

Anyone any tips for cleaning the carbon fibre effect around the head unit? Slightest touch and it leaves finger prints.

I just spray it with dash cleaner/wax and wipe with a softer microfibre cloth, but it can be a pain. Also, I still after all these years have not found a 100% scratch free way of cleaning the plastic on the dials!

Yeah the dials. I'm just going out to actually clean the dash. Not looking forward to its first clean and the inevitable scratches on it.

Finally fitted 20mm rear spacers to my Mk7 GTI PP. Apologies for the terrible photos:

Today i have changed GTD diffuser and GTD exhaust for GTI difuser and GTI exhaust. All i can say is GREAT :smiley:! Sound now is the same as before change but visually the car is much more beautiful!

very nice mate, wondered who would be the first to do this. OEM exhaust too? I may have taken the opportunity to but a aftermarket on
