Title: How to brighten up your candy white Golf
Post by: mac7 on 23 November 2009, 17:58

Just wanted to share a picture of H&R's Golf TDI that I found. Whenever I see a white GTI (or white cars in general) I always think it's missing something. Then I saw this pic and i realised what it was - when I was a kid, rally cars, touring cars etc were often white with the team or sponsor colours painted on. A white GTI looks to me like someone left off the racing stripes :grin: Plus I thought it was a cool pic.

Looks quite nice, but what's with the Upvc guttering under the door?

I love the German flag detailing, I had an avatar with those colours on another forum once, many moons ago. I ditched it during the World Cup!

When I see a white car I always think of

Dont like the bodykit, car is too low for my liking, I do like the alloys and I think the black/red/yellow stripes looks superb, but I'd never do it to my own car.

Is there any tyre there ?  :grin: Look like rims to me.

Seriously though, how uncomfy must that ride be.

It's a show car, I don't think you'd be able to actually drive it with no suspension travel and about 22'' wheels. Then again some of the tat you see in car mags like Golf+ suggests that some people think this is cool.
