Thanks so far guys -

Not sure I care for the red stripe around the grille though  :sick: (my car's sort of silvery green colour)

Its an '89 (G plate)

It looks like an early G reg model in which case it would have come with small bumpers (big bumpers came in halfway through G-reg). This is also noticable because your big bumpers are black/unpainted and big bumpers were always body coloured.

my project has an original grill for early 89 (F plate)

GTI badge has gone walkies tho  :angry:

also small bumper GTI's have a red "go faster" stripe running right above the plastic door strips.

plus it should have a black vinyl stripe running in the recessed section running down the length of the car (above the door strips)... mine has started to peel off...!

Thanks guys!

Between y'all and Taxiboy I think I know what's what now!

Crevice - your project looks to be same colour as mine - or at least very similar, still cant get my head round the thin red trims on a car that colour tho!

Anyhow, looks like I've got a fair bit to do on her, mostly 'cosmetic' stuff and finding the right bits n pieces -  but I'll get there with help from my man when I get back to UK (!)
Watch this space I guess ....  :wink:

It will be great to see them both together,hopefully a matching pair. One either end of the pitch at shows?
