Cheers!

Want to tint half the rear lights, Half red, half black tint. so any pointers would be great

ordered some tinted side repeaters from the bay.

cant decide weather to blacken the black badge or buy a new chrome 1?

Then going to completely clean it, wash, clay, wax etc etc full shebang, well what i can that doesnt require an electric polisher!

Cheers WK

For the rear lights, would probably be easier and look much better if you bought some GTI smoked rear lights off ebay or somewhere. That tint spray can sometimes look gash and all orange peely

if you have a scrappy near by then you will probably pick up a bargain as ebay prices tend to be inflated quite a bit these days i have noticed
