Black is the best when all clean and shiny then you step out on the open road and all your efforts vanish. :laugh:

Had black myself and it is a stunning colour.

Like the red strip on the lower bumper too.

Post by: GlosRobin-1984 on 20 February 2017, 20:02: Thanks mate! Love the colour. Just parted with a black mk6 gt tdi looks great when clean but is a bugger to keep clean. The red lip really sets off the front, just vinyl wrap. Not sure wheather to do parts of the plastic side skirts to match but might be too much?

The good thing about the wrap is that it's not permanent so if after having it done you don't like it just whip it off...

I take delivery of a 7 GTD soon which is coming with a panroof and gloss black mirrors and I enquired about getting the rest of the roof wrapped in gloss black which would of cost £140.

I've put a hold on it for now as I've spent a few ££ already on a car I ain't even got yet :grin: but it's something I might do in the future if I get bored.
