liking your alloys  :wink:
exhausts much better but as said put  4mo valance on and get it tucked into it then that'l look spot on
cant beat black badges and as said i think some us spec rears or m3's will look good on yours :afro:
good work  :wink:

I have some fly eyes film you can use to cover your lights...

They have gone out of stock ATM on website so would be cool if you rate it, only thing that put me off bout that was it seemed like the old school 'tights' trick?  :rolleyes:

Have u used it? What did you think if you have? Have u seen the lami-x stuff? I got some for headlights and liked it.

Anyone got a pic of 'sambos' car with the smoked M3's? I remember a pic a while ago but i dont think the pic done them justice so put me off buying them !  :laugh:

Looks good! 
Aye, go for the 4mo valance which has a nice formed cut-out.
The rear lights are one of those Marmite things, but fair play for choosing something different.  Keep up the modding!

They came on it, but did choose to keep on. Thinking of darkening with lamin-x to hide uglyness in daytime, but at night, i quite like them  :lipsrsealed:
 
or do what i want and get, just dont know if they will suit indigo blue  :undecided:



And looks like exhaust comes out in completely wrong place for valance, and gunna be a ball ache to adjust  :undecided:

I've seen these on a gunmetal one near me that has anthracite S3 rims with polished lip and a 40mm drop and they look really smart on it, they are the only lights I'd consider fitting other than leaving the standard GTi lights on ours.  Really like these ones, suit pretty much any colour I think

I've got a roll here, I'm sure I could let you have enough to do your lights. I'm using it for my headlights on my bike, will be doing that this weekend so I'll let you know how it looks.

Here's a pic of a TT with the rear lights done in the kit
