Wow that’s a lovely looking Clubsport  :shocked:  :cool:
The small mods have really made a difference, the paddle upgrade is something I’m thinking about doing to mine. Just a bit of a wimp when it comes to playing around with the airbag  :whistle:
Prior - MK2 GTi Big Bumper in White
Current - MK8 GTi Clubsport in Moonstone Grey
(Plus Many other non-Golf hot-hatches in-between!)

Car looks incredible, love the mods too  :cool:

Can I ask do you have a link for those door sills? Can’t seem to find them specific ones anywhere, they look really good

Cheers

They’re actually OEM VW cills, from the Polo GTI. They actually fit these cills to the Polo but not its bigger brother. I bought them last year from a one time member on here who had bought them from VW but never fitted them himself. I can probably dig out the part numbers if you want them but I’d say they would be pricey enough from VW.

Looking fantastic!! If you have the part numbers for door sills that would be good.

I fitted these “inner” cill plates today, also lifted from previous car. I got these on EBay 3 years ago and they’re really nice quality. I had a scan on eBay there and I cannot find them anymore or the seller.

Your car looks stunning Joe. Great spec and colour comes out really well with the gloss black. The add-ons just finish it off in a good way.

Mine is due to get built week 10. Time to start buying a few wee bits for it!!

Exonian, whats your thoughts having seen a white clubby in the flesh. I've only seen a Gti in white and thought it looked great so changed to that colour. Hoping the gloss black will just lift it a little bit more.
Current,
2021 Audi S3 Vorsprung, Tango Red.
2020 Up Gti, Tungsten silver. (Early buy for daughter...who's 15!!)
Previous,
2019 Mk7.5 Gti PP, Indium Grey.
2016 Mk7 Gtd Carbon grey.
2014 Mk7 Gti, Tornado red.
2006 Mk5 Gti, Reflex silver.     Plus many more.

I saw this on Facebook today, white looks great!

Thanks for putting up that photo.

More than happy with how the white/black/red works and really looking forward to it arriving now.

Nabbed from Autotrader but this is the actual car in my local dealer:




Works for me and if ordering another Clubby (or GTI) myself I’d be putting white at the top of my list alongside Moonstone or Crystal Ice.
