Joe, you mentioned in the steering wheel thread your friend’s new Clubsport, what colour is that car out of interest?

Crystal ice blue! Here’s a pic of the 2 of them side by side. His has the black pack too.

Wow! Obviously I have to be biased here and say yours looks the best 😁 but genuinely they both look fantastic and it’d be hard to pick a favourite there.  :cool:

So when I had the car ceramic coated a couple of weeks ago, the detailer whipped off (he did ask me first!) the big "GTI" badges off the doors. It was going to make his job easier (polishing, ceramic application, etc) with them out of the way. I wasn't that keen on them, so I was indifferent either way.

Meanwhile, I got a pair of MK8 wing badges - I haven't stuck them on yet... what do we think, yay or nay?!

Big fat yay from me. Will look naked without a GTI badge.

I also had my GTI badges removed when ceramic coating, at my request. Had thought about the Mk8 darts but worried it might make my car look older  :grin:

Haha! That occurred to me but I think only the most serious anoraks would ever realise it’s “older”.

Is it a MK8 or a 8.5?  :laugh:

Really happy with these…
