Looks good Morag, not seen a blue one in the flesh yet.
I've got Bridgestones on mine too. They seem okay, they're fairly quiet. Not had any real weather or done any proper driving to test them though.
Front mud-flaps you'd probably get away with okay, the rears don't look very clever though. Maybe they look better than permanently mud splattered paint though?

The first GTI I test drove had them and they looked a bit rubbish from the back, didn't really notice the fronts much, so they can't have been too offensive.
