Other than the dealer breaking my bloody key ring all is good!

I like it mate, it's much better than the standard.
I still think a carbon wrapped one looks better though :wink:
-
looks good
now get rid of them wheelbarrow handle tail pipes!
-
Very nice indeed, much better than the original plastic version.
Shame about THE keyring tho :smiley: :wink:

Cheers mate. I had planned on doing exactly that tonight but the weather has turned a bit grim so I might do it in the morning and then I'll get some more pics.

Looks far better than the drab grey plastic OEM diffuser :smiley:
VW take note :evil:

Let's see some proper pics, does look good though.

Looks :cool: that does...

That diffusser looks the business...

Haha....couldn't help sorry...i like my keyring...

Looks so much better, would look nice against my red.. :cool: :evil:
-
Nice :cool:
look forward to the full rear shot to really show it off - I think the contrast on the CW makes it stand out even better
-
Did they use a special primer before the top coat?

Yeah thanks, better this week, on a serious note would it work with deep black pearl do you think?
-
It looks nice but seems a bit daft unless your going to get the sills done as well, now nothing matches? :huh:

Not sure, I'll try and find out.

Not sure really. If you mean colour coding it then yes but not sure about non metallic?

Do you mean apart from the mirror caps, front end and the fact it ties nicely in with the 90% rear tints?

Sorry mate, my mistake, forgot it was a 35...... :embarassed:

No offence taken mate. I don't think I would've done it otherwise.
-
Looks really good, planning to paint mine as well.
-
Looking good with the white
-
Has someone asked already how much this was?
Looks awesome, i got a few quotes to vinyl wrap it - £80 - interested to know how it compares
-
Has anybody had diffuser and sills done?
-
I had a riduculous quote of £800 to do my rear diffuser, wind mirror covers and sill strips in gloss black. That was in Windsor though
-
Think I'll be having mine sprayed when it arrives also, it looks the dogs danglies :D would be interested to know how much it cost people approximately :smiley:
-
Supplying dealer £120 inc vat. Had the car for two days stating it was for the flattening process of the primer etc. I'm really happy with it.
Thanks for all of the positive comments! The car will be on the club stand at GTi international on the Saturday.

Agreed! It must be the next mod on the list for sure...

Looks good mate, those tips look a bit smaller than the ones on mine, although could just be a trick of the light? :huh:
-

Hi.
My first post !
I have a GTi on candy white ordered and should collect it onm September 1st.
I have to say I really like the black diffuser, it looks so much better than the grey plastic.
I intend to have the side skirts sprayed white but I am also considering spraying the diffuse in white too. Has anyone sprayed the diffuser in white ?
can anyone maybe photshop a pic. I think white would look smart but wonder if if would look too much........... I am not too worried about possible colour change from the exhaust smoke as I tend to keep my cars immaculate......

I think if you do them in white you'll lose the shape of the car a bit. You'd also have to careful that the whites match or it would look weird.
Never seen anyone do it on here before.
Welcome to the forums btw.

There is a pic of the diffuser sprayed white on a car in this thread and IMO it doesn't look good, apologies I can't direct you to a specific page but I am sure you'll enjoy flicking through as I did :wink:

The service guy yanked the paper fob off and in the process snapped it! The air was blue!

Personally I really like the black diffuser. Was thinking about having it sprayed white but will get it done in black with the side skirts in white (can't understand why they aren't white anyway).
Car arrives towards end of July with a collection on September 1st. I wonder if the dealership bodyworkshop would give a price so that it would be done upon collection............. :wink:
-
Bet they would, at least it'll all be done for the collection date. Just don't let them rip you off!
-
the side skirts in white (can't understand why they aren't
If you spray the side skirts white they will lose the sporty look they give over the base models IMO.

It's worth just asking them for a quote, surely! :wink:

hows about vinyl wrapping it?
less chance of stone chips etc and when your bored of it you just peel it off. prob much cheaper than painting it too.
i want to wrap the front spoiler gloss black as it looks a bit awkward body coloured IMO.

Same here, just doesn't look right in white for me, hoping it will achieve a similar look to the ED30's when they have been done :cool:
