whats peoples thoughts on the following mods.
« on: 26 April 2014, 18:49 »
My golf is pearlescent black, 3 door.

1) front door window wind deflectors.
2) matte vw badges front and rear                      from pics i have seen looks good..
3) rear window tints.                                       .(very unsure might make it look abit "van" ish.)



whats your thoughts people? Has anyone done any of these and have any advice or tips when installing too?

Only my humble opinion pal.....

1. personally don't like the look of them, for me only an option for preference
2. again preference only. I prefer to keep my GiT standard or at least OEM upgrades (except remap!). However, I also consider whether this may have an affect when selling in future, so again up to you !
3. I have these from factory but they aren't as dark as other marques. I'd go for this anyhoo (certainly darker than mine i.e. factory)
