Title: My new GTI
Post by: Gav_Scotland on 13 August 2019, 08:44
Hi everyone, just a few of my GTI that I picked up a few weeks ago.

AutoGlym Lifeshine applied and engine given a good clean. Couple of little chips to get rid of, after that I'm going to add a manifold cover. Considering having the wheels coated black.

Looking good  :cool:

You should get some Gtechniq T1 or similar and all that black trim at the front of the engine will look even better!

Ah cheers Jim, I'll give that a try - it's been irritating me to be fair, possible touch of the OCD

I know the area well I'm only a few miles away in the west end if you want your wheels done let me know my pal owns a place in paisley  :smiley: but going black tends to make the wheels look smaller

Yep Carbon Steel Grey, that's what I liked about it, goes from black, grey blue depending on the light. Quite understated as well. Had my first blast up to Ullapool to see the in-laws. Was fun.  :grin:

Nice, if only it didn't have a massive PB logo!

Ps I find Postimage is much better.
