Looks nice Russ - I did mine a few weeks back.
I think your front looks meaner because of the extra vents - did you order and fit them yourself?

Cheers, yeah ordered those covers from Fischers Motorsports (I think thats what their called!) as recommended by RedRobin. Then its just two screws on each side. I think you can get them from UK dealers too.  :smiley:

....Tess, you're a wicked girl! (I'm assumimg you are 'Our Tess' :grin:)

Actually, if you fitted a searchlight type of light which shone through the VW badge it would look kinda cool in an American Railway Locomotive sort of way! :laugh:

Here's mine done, very pleased with the difference such a small change makes!


....That's exactly what I thought after I did mine - How can such a small change make such a big difference?

What's nice is that you can still read the badge as saying VW but it all looks much more integrated.

Did you do it yourself or did you buy one of those selling on ebay?

The new 15million candlelight torch should do the trick - if you could room to fit it  :grin:
