It would look great in red. Unfortunately illegal to have red light at the front of a vehicle though in most countries.

Thanks for the fitting walk through guy1, it doesn’t sound too daunting.

I just fitted these cill strips to my CS, they’re OEM from the current Polo GTI. Very happy with them! Thanks very much to Exonian for putting me in contact with his buddy who sold these to me for a very reasonable price  :cool:

Looks like you need the silver foot rest there Joe to go with this set up.

haha yeah maybe. I had one of those in my MK7. The one thing that put me off is that the eBay one is made for a manual car, i.e. it's narrower than the DSG footrest. At least that was the case then.

The narrower one did bug me at for a couple of days and I considered switching back, but got used to it quite quickly
