OK, here's a question for you all.......

I'd go remap over a tuning box. Carbon have one that can removed so you have the best of both worlds.

I personally like the idea maintaining a really nice stock example. I'm probably in the minority here - I can never decide that I like anything non-OEM looking for more than 5 minutes

Not at all - I never mess around with any of my cars!  I stick to stock    Only time I've done anything was to get the red PP badges added to my GTI PP as when I got mine they were still silver.  Apart from that I stick with what I've got, if I want something different I wait until the next version comes out

Could alway throw an R400 style bodykit on it to pep it up a little??

If only that colour was an option on the configurator, I might have been swayed away from my usual black

I think that "beige" is actually LSG.... everyone says my car is "metallic beige"

I assumed it was the LSG     In pictures where LSG looks more grey I like it but am less keen when it takes on the 'beige' hue.  In reality how beige is it?

It is beige more often than it is grey. In most lights it looks like the cathodic protection applied to the car before the undercoat is applied. Seems a popular choice on the non-performance Golfs - plenty of Match and GT Golfs seen in this colour at my local dealerships' used lot. When it is photographed looking nice (as most of us would like it to be) it looks carbon grey.

It looks beige more often than not.

I ordered it based on the configurator representation.... I won't be doing that again lol

Still, looking beige makes for a good Q car

A little too Q car perhaps, there's sleeper then there's über sleeper zzzz 

The configurator colour representations are woeful.  It manages to make every colour look flat and dull. I'd never buy based on that.  But in the pics I've seen where it looks darkish metallic grey....nice, if only that was the reality.
