Title: Front splitter and red GTI badges
Post by: adamrgti on 24 November 2018, 13:50: Hello everyone, looking at doing a couple small mods. Like the look of the front splitters so which would people recommend? Also, where is best to purchase red badge skins for the GTI badges?

Thanks

I went for gloss black Badgeskins on my std GTI and they looked superb :cool:

I think the website is pretty crap to be honest and I was reluctant to order but they arrived ok.

That looks really nice Rob. Different but subtle.

:laugh: Yeah the plate cost a fortune. Thanks, I'm happy with it. Think the car is about done. I don't think I'll be tuning as I've yet to feel it's too slow on the open road. I may feel different in a year or two.
