For me it's a nay as well. It just looks like someone nicked the silver bit. The wing mirrors look sweet though!

I think it could work with a more aggressive stance and black wheels, but then you're going somewhere you probably don't want to go!

A nay from me also. I usually like the look of a black front emblem, on certain MK7's and certain colors. But the GTD grille, having that chrome, in the headlights, and the GTD logo, the Black just doesnt match as well. Looks better stock. But the mirrors though :laugh:

A Nay for me...

It would look like you've joined the Halfords fan club.
OEM far better.
