2 choices with the colour I reckon.
Firstly, super subtle maybe black or grey so that your average road user doesn't take too much notice. Although the rumbling engine may be a bit of a giveaway!
Second idea, paint it a really stupid colour like Simon's beast:

No one could miss you then!

Most importantly though, you need some GolfGTI.co.uk stickers in the windows  ;) and then get it in PerformanceVW :)

if it was me i'd keep it relatively standard looking, smoothed out a little, and obviously as low and wide as it can be. That'll make the Porsche driver next to you at the lights even more sick when he's eating your exhaust fumes. Does that qualify me for a blast at santa pod ?  ;) ;) ;)

Reckon we should get a gentlemans wager on the final BHP of this beast?

I reckon at least 350 BHP is easily realistic

All the best with it and cant wait to finally see it in the "metal"

Whats going to happen to the motor after the cars finished? are you gonna mod the engine further or just keep it stock?
