Ignore DH - That's just how he is! 

Have a look at this post i did not too long ago about murdering out

http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=155512.0

Hopefully you can get some inspiration from that.

Keep up the good work, i've always wanted to murder out a Mk4, hopefully you can do it for me 

Oh and ignore the haters...

Haha. Thanks for the positivity!  never thought something like window tints would be so controversial.. Lol. Fair enough that everyone has their opinions though..

Thanks for the link, looks good! I saw a Mk5 murdered in Performance VW and ever since then I've been itching to do it on a Mk4.. It's gonna really get going this month.

Keep looking out for this thread- bought my alloys and will be doing them soon and would love to know what you think of them..  thanks again for your words!

car looks good 

Thanks  keep watching for the next installment!

the alloys would suit it when there on! 

I'm hoping so..  in two minds about how to spray them though... :/ just can't decide.

Its not my car bud, someone from a local vw club, but he just slpit the lights and sprayed them matt black and sealed them back up again. Really cheap mod but makes a massive difference!

Ah thanks for the tip mate.. Sounds good to me- just don't know whether I want to put black angel eyes in it..?

Have a look at my headlights in my sig pic, i've split them and painted some of the insides black then covered the outside in tint film as well

Actually here's a better pic:

Just to stir it up some more, your rear lights are also illegal. 

Some other MK4 on Traffic cops got done for it, no working reflectors anymore.

Not hating, I'd risk it and run them personally but just a heads up.


Looking good though!

I got pulled over and cautioned years ago for running heavily tinted lights on a mk3 fiesta xr2i. Apparently they didnt let enough light through, which was a fair comment! But hey i was 18 and we all make mistakes.

If i were going to tint those mk4 lights, i'd only tint the reverse and indicator sections. I know theyre already OE tinted but you could make them darker without upsetting anyone, plus the leaving the tail/brake sections red might break up all that black...

Yeah I know they are..  Obviously I wouldn't let the police know that  They do let enough light through when I'm breaking etc, but as you say not seeing the reflectors is a no. You can buy some to just stick on to the lights but I'm not that bothered really.. Where I live, the police do a lot of looking but not much pulling. TOUCH WOOD

Yeah, I know they're illegal without the reflectors on them.. Not really that bothered about it at the moment 

I see what you're saying about breaking up the colour- I really like those half tinted lights you're going on about, but, it just wouldn't be murder if I had any other colour on it really.. I'm also having an issue with choosing whether I should put red on my new alloys or just have them completely black..?
