Glad to see you've kissed and made up  :grin:

I know that the spacers haven't had much of an impact but I didn't really expect them to tbh, they're only 15mm and it's only a 6.5j rim :laugh:

It is however a slight improvement and i've got the spacers now for future use. I'm planning on keeping the bbs to run through the winters and sorting out some other wheels for the summer, wheels that will benefit more from the spacers  :wink:

I like the lights and the film is easy enough to remove so if a time comes when I decide that I don't like them any more I can just peel the film off and be left with normal joey modded lights, simples  :smiley:

we never fell out lol, its all just opinions we all have em  :cool: but i deffo prefere it how u had it before, less is more is what its all about for me personally..

its each to their own and not somehting id like to fall out over with anyone haha, these threads are here so we can voice our personal opinions and if i said i liked the film it would have been a lie. As u say, easy to remove if u ever desire anyhow and as long as its keeping you smiling thats all that matters  :cool:

hmmm, that's the trouble with spacers, you can't go nuts until you settle on wheels.  If you may be changing the wheels again then how far can you go anyway? Car looks good and gets better every time.  I'm a fan of the headlights. :afro:

Looking good Dom, Im a little undecided on the lights  :undecided: but defo looks better with the spacers  :grin:
Another quality Red mk3, Obviously the best colour for a GTI (I'm not biased at all  :wink:)

Dom, the spacers don't seem to have done much.  :grin: But I'm sure they bring it out just a tad. Shame that on the MK3 the rears look tucked.

 :grin:

I guess you'll all have to trust me that it is marginally better than it was, 15mm to be precise  :laugh:

I'll try and get a pic at exactly the same angle as the 'before' one to compare, in the meanwhile here is one that highlights the difference a little better, just the inside of the arch/sideskirt trim as a marker  :wink:
