It looks awesome Joe.
Now you've got to keep it looking like that.
Easier said than done. Got my first stone chip already! In a really obvious place too, just in front of the mirror at bottom of A pillar. Crap.
I feel for you Joe The first cut is the deepest, as the song goes! Are you going to fill it/touch it in or yet or wait a while? Sadly I expect there'll be a few more to come.
But otherwise hope you are enjoying the car?
I'll try touching it up myself, just need to get my hands on a touch up kit. I've had limited success with doing touch ups in the past, I probably wouldn't bother if it wasn't in such an obvious location!
Yeah, you are right, I'm sure it'll be the first of a few more in time... I never seemed to pick up many or even any on the white. A much more forgiving colour though.
Oh yes, otherwise very much enjoying the car!! It's great, really does feel like a step up from the GTI.
I did a couple of tasty mods on it yesterday (or rather I "helped" a fellow member on here do it for me!). LED door-card warning lights (in place of the cheapo reflectors) and rear LED footwell lights. Very nice touches. We also did a few minor VCDS tweaks such as the full brake lights, locking chirp, fan-speed display on Auto, heated seat memory, auto coming home headlights...
