I need some help people.. i just cant decide which grill combination to go for!
theres some pics below of the different choices that i just cant decide, so if you could let me know what you think that would be great!
Debadged with gti badge to the side (Oh yea and the bonnet bra is for sale so i put it on to take a pic) Please see http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=90776.0 a few other bits for sale there as well :wink:

195x45x15
just wondered if anyone would be interested in a straight swap for anything as im skint so cant afford to buy anymore! Anything considered (15/16's only though as im sitting quite low) :laugh:

I like the black badged grill as it goes well with your black headlights and makes it look more cohesive. I would also black the VW badge as well.
-
Another man with Morette's! Good taste Sir!! :wink:
Colour code FTW, body colour the lights & then go with the blue grill IMO! :smiley:

Thanks for the comments chaps!

I'm liking the idea of blacking the vw badge but i think i might stick with the blue/black grill.. the pure black one may be too much black?

Hmmm.. i debated spraying my lights blue when i bought the car but sounds like too much blue! I reckon the black goes well as its a nice contrast?!
-
Third one I think...
-
Third one man, black VW badge :grin:
-
Looks like a can of black spray paint is in order when ive got some spare cash then :laugh:
No takers on the wheels?! :sad:
-
I think you need a better pic of them,and put it in classifieds
-
Yea it was dark when i took the pic so had to get close up for the flash. Will get a new one after ive cleaned it :grin:
-
quite like both the black and the blue body colour grille ideas... can see where your dilemma is
if you go for the third option drop the GTi badge from that position as it looks odd imo... would look better on next 'rung' up
-
Get rid of the GTi badge :cool:
-
Yea i was thinking of removing the gti badge.. the only reason i put it there is because the black part of the grille is from my old golf driver that i had before my gti. Found it in the garage and as im skint so thought i would have a bit of an experiment to change without spending money :grin: but the driver grille slats are closer together so the gti badge doesnt fit there.. will take it out tomorrow and see how that looks...
But at the same time im still liking the pure black grille! Might just change every week lol!

i say non
put the standard one back on, all those look wrong for some reason and the twin lights look weird?? think they need to be blue also
sorry if this hurts just voicing my opinion rather than just been a sheep (not saying anyone is however)

Hmm.. Na it doesnt hurt, i wanted peoples honest opinions! :smiley:
Just not sure what to do with the front end! I bought it with those lights and ive never really been that keen on them, i did however get the original ones included in the sale so im thinking about sticking them back on. I think there would be too much blue if i sprayed them blue?! I really dont no lol
-
they would look wicked all blue, and with the OE grill on too.. thats jusy my opinion anyhow
end of the day its your car and if you like it a certain way then who are we to stand in your way :wink:
-
hmm we'll see what happens over the next few weeks! Gunna see what i can come up with.
I think i would go down the all blue route if i could get hold of some smoked lenses like yours.. or spray them myself and invest in some HID's.
I'll top this up with any updates :wink:
Cheers for the input anyway chaps!
-
yeah mine are the hella twin headlights where yours are the morrete type, not sure u can get the smoked glass for yours unless you self tint which would be easy enough to do :)

Sounds like a plan to me! :grin:

id have to say the 3rd one, with the blue section. although if your thinking of putting your stardard lights back on, i'll quite happily take them lights off you :tongue:
-
Yea im currently running the 3rd one atm, see how i like it after a week of looking at it!
As for the lights i will keep you in mind if i do decide to sell them :grin:
