Hey up guys,

as title say....not sure what to do with front end. I have a Carbon grey GTI. So Balck badge looks ok, standard badge looks ok.....not sure about no badge (full honey comb grill) or maybe even Golf R front grill. And im not sure on the red stripes on CSG colour.

I think painting the red lines into a sexy bronze colour would look great...as im also thinking about get some sexy bronze alloys like below, let me know your thoughts please:

loool, no, its not mine. Its the same as that though. I have the standard Monza Shadows alloys. I think those alloys in that colour look awesome.

Some people think they look awful though...... :drool:

Keep the badge.  If you were to go bronze on wheels and stripe, then how about bronze badge?

Undecided about the wheels but CSG/bronze colour combo could be  :cool:

I think leave it standard. The R front grilles are nice, but would look odd with the honeycomb in your lower bumper. I also think the debadge honeycomb grilles look a little odd as well, so I think standard is best with the gti.
