Thanks Winrya  :cool:

I take it these are plain primer colour sent?

I'm thinking of getting the Ed30 front and rear and getting them painted up  :smiley:

Changing the rear Holly Valance etc on a black GTI....I don't really understand why. I do understand doing so on any of the other coloured GTI's because the black rear plastic stands out visually. But, who am I to speak? - Not everyone understands spending on carbonfibre :grin:.

It just always annoyed me to be honest red.  I was sick of people saying lovely car, why didn't they paint the bumpers :angry:

I'm more of a subtle modder, for your average person they might think its standard, but for me and people in the know, they will appreciate the subtle improvements.  Well I hope so anyway  :tongue:

Heres my original just colourcoded. I cant see much difference other than the ED30 exhaust cutout having a strip around it. Am i right?

....Every GTI owner who's an enthusiast (probably 85%) will appreciate what you have done but most important of all is YOUR appreciation of your ride :smiley:

The only difference is that the ED30 is colour coded and has a strip around the exhaust. Am i right?
