All, let me respond.

The vast majority of Mk6 drivers (i.e. those on here) aren't teenagers any longer, apart from me (well, at least in my head) ! And so have a different sense of humour to those younger and older.
I'm sure the initial response was meant in a sarcastic manner, but the recipient didn't realise this at the time.
All the same, we here are a little sarcastic but have our own ways (due to old age, ahem Asker, Doc etc  :wink:  !!!)
But we all mean well, you simply have to 'read through the lines'. I think that our Doc meant that it may affect your re-sale value....maybe?

Personally, I have a white GiT but wouldn't do a black roof, but would do it on a white R (as the wing mirror shells are also black) and also would replace the black aerial with a white one (or spray it)....
But not a bad idea, I haven't seen it in the flesh yet

I am thinking of getting the roof on my white GTD wrapped in black, has anyone done this before and how does it look as ive never seen one before..

Brilliant idea. As you can see, it will look fantastic. Go for it.
Thinking of doing the same to my red roof.
This company is pretty good. £150 for the roof, £60 for the door mirrors, £60 for the front spoiler chin, approximately.

My point is you're all so stuck up, you can't respond in a sensible manner, and you deride the guy still for making genuine requests.

I'm afraid a great number of you in this section are over opinionated middle class pompous idiots. I know this will make no difference to your behaviour because your arrogance will override any sense of decency you may of had. I think a lot of you need to take a long hard look at your behaviour and the double standards that are so prevalent in this section. YOU make the forum a bad place to visit.

Sound like I've upset you for which I'm sorry, I just saw the screamer post go down hill fast for obvious reasons but if you cant see the obvious in that post I'm lost  :smiley:, that post was quickly followed by this post and I put two and two together and maybe made 5? - the guy (?) still hasn't done any intro etc so it looks whiffy to me and my job is to seek out whiffy and warn members or eliminate it.

Tell me more about the double standards and why the forum is bad, pm is fine if you'd rather. I'm not being a cock I'm asking a genuine question but whichever way I ask it makes me sound like I'm being funny but I'm really not  :wink:

True, we know that, but I was trying to be polite and diplomatic. Think I'll revert to my normal sarcastic self !!!   :smiley:

Yeah, stick to basics, it works far better round here.  :grin:

Humour goes over everyone's heads, banter turns into war, mods have to tread on egg shells and every so often we end up with a marriage breakdown....

So true, thanks for the support troops.


The forum is it's members at the end of the day, if your not happy please PM me and let me know - I may come across as MAD but I'm ok really.

PM's sent to people I have possibly angered, but not to the OP as he still hasn't said hello in the hello bit even though he asked about screamers :grin:
