This is my old blew GTI.
                   ^^^  See what i did there  :grin: 

Started to look tidy but i replaced the gearbox with a noisy crunchy one and to be honnest i think the interior looks better in a red MK3  :evil:  so i broke it in the end.



In loving memory LUF  :smiley:

I've been thinking about some mk4 headlights for mine but still not sure, they look great on that one though especially with the new fog/tow/indicators too.
Would it have the same effect on dragon green though?.

This is a brilliant topic, i have a fjord blue GTI and was a little stuck on how to modify the exterior subtly, but some of these look great, they are a bit rare, ive been after two replacement wings second hand but the chances are pretty non existent.

LR5V is a great colour... just get any wings and have them painted up... shouldn't cost too much

you could get a wing without an aerial hole in it then transfer your aerial to the roof for a subtle mod

I always thought OEM+ was the best way forward when I had mine  :smiley:

Post by: les.tansey on 02 June 2011, 16:35
I thought of getting any coloured bumpers and spraying them myself but what put me off was the colour match..., how well would it match to thhe original paint, baring in mind its had 16yrs of fading time. one of my doors are a slightly different colour to the rest looks like a replacement, was just wondering it would look the same colour???

Because LR5V body parts are so scarce  :cry:

Shouldn't be too difficult, he's done a tornado red wing for us before, and given that the rest of the car was tornado pink it matched pretty damn well!
