i have all mine the same colour as the car, if u really must leave the lights black, at least paint the lower strip of the grill (the bit that goes under the lights etc)
-
paint the lights the same colour as the car, would look so much better and also some of your grill! :wink:

How do you get that VR splitter to sit tight in the middle! :shocked:
Fettled with mine for ages (original VAG) & still have a 'gap'. Have another one on it's way on the new set of bumpers so hopefully get it right soon!

-

I purchased an after market VR splitter from fleabay and mine fits with no gap, only cost me £17 too
-

oh and on the original post...i think you need some other colour otherwise it will be too blue.. try painting the bottom part of the grille first and see what you think
-
i think this looks good :wink:

Yep most definitely body colour all round.
-
thats the kiddy, paint the bottom of grill and light surrounds....leave grill fins black and sort the bumper plastic black and it'll look sweet
-
yeh does look good, will get something sorted either way
Thanx for the quick shops people :smiley:
