Red - it sets it off nicely (as it's supposed to).


It's also supposed to have 178 bhp.


I like the carbon, make it look meaner. Mean look for a mean car.
Any more carbon would be over the top imo, spot on as is.

+1 on this! If you weren't getting a red badge is say stick with the red bars but both is too much.

I prefer the red, it's the way GTI's are meant to be really, and it's a lovely contract to the black.

I like your idea with red badge as I suggested  :lipsrsealed: :wink: and black slats. Gives it a sort of murdered and mean look, but also some caracter with the red badge.

Will be ace with just the red badge for that hint of colour to break it up. Love the almost stealth look of it all black though.  :cool:
Wouldn't be fun if it was easy, but does it have to be this much fun?

Black


Personally I like the Black CF front  :cool:

I'm with you on this one John. :cool: Looks good and away from the norm. If you were going to not do anything to it then you may as well leave everything standard. :wink: keep up the good work. :afro:

To me a GTI isn't a GTI without the red piping at the front...


... although your car is arguably no longer a GTI with what you're doing to it.  :evil:

I like the black badge, but I think the black piping is lost somewhat on the all black front. Is there no other colours in your colour scheme you could incorporate? I think it was SteveP on here who wrapped his piping in orange to match his Porsche brakes a while ago.
