MK7 GTI Facelift

[hog_hedge]

Going off on a tangent from the fogs or no fogs debate, who actually uses front fog lights?

I'd rather not have them to be honest because they have made no difference for me even in really thick fog and then I forget to turn the buggers off.

The LED fogs on my GTD, and now the GTI, are the first fog lights I have found to be fit for purpose, both as fog lights ( !! ) and as fill in lights when I'm on poor or unmade roads at night ( !!! ). Be a bugger if, having finally got a decent design, they ditched them. 

I currently drive a Corsa and the fog lights are useless but it is a Vauxhall so that says it all really.

Same here, I also have them set to come on with the headlights. Another thing is that the Mk7 is the first car I have seen(as I meet oncoming) that has their fogs on and it doesn't bother/dazzle me.

VW Crewe has an Indium Grey GTD plated up outside and it definitely doesn't have front fog lights in the fins - I don't think it looks as mean without them!

How did it look in that colour?

There was an Indium Grey in between two Tornado Red Golf's at the dealers yesterday. As the light faded it started to look quite beige

The new GTD alloys look really good. Thought they also look like they would be really, really difficult to clean.

They are going to need a new set of wheel woolies. Bit fussy for me.

So it looks like front fog lights are going to be first on the list for the BW22/MY18 changes

In the daylight Indium Grey looked good - considering I've got Carbon Grey at the minute it looked really good, although I'd still like to see a photo of Isaac Blue or better still see that colour in the flesh now.  I'm not a techi so don't have a photo bucket account or whatever to upload photos too.

I'll be waiting to BW22 / MY18 changes before ordering as ideally I want Fog Lights + Sport & Sound which will match what I have currently.

I wouldn't be so sure either of those will be coming. I'm still waiting for vw to explain why the fogs have gone...
