My mk6 GTI (with pics) Pearlescent black

[chris1h]

yeah that's what I have been thinking too! dunno what it would look like. The only wrap I would have on is carbon fibre style but dunno if it would spoil it. As for painting the diffuser I have heard stories that it chips off and peels off painting aposed to wrap. Unless a good primer is used before possibly?

I looked into the diffuser painting a while back and had some useful advice from forum member cosmicremedy who worked for a company specialising in painting exterior automotive plastics.  Advice below:

"should just need an adhesion promoter or special primer as the diffuser is likely to be polyprop or PP.  This usually needs flaming (in the industry) or an adhesion promoter will make the paint stick....  Without these on polyprop there's a risk the paint will flake off, especially when put under the pressure of a jet washer."

yeah thought i had read about peeling thanks for that booth!  some look really smart when there done in a gloss black or carbon fibre, but I couldnt "DIY it" and would get charged a arm and a leg for a company doing it.  time to save £

I wish I had some parking sensors and xenons and folding mirrors
retrofits are so expensive

yerh folding mirrors are handy but i wish they had the option of when locking it from a distance they would close.. would look like a d*ckhead but would be fun      thought i broke mine yesterday. smashed it straight off another car mirror in the street   made a massive clonk noise when i went to turn it out again
