WhiteGTI. Thats a OSir front lip. Votex skirts and rear. Look at the sites I posted for Joe you can buy them there and fit yourself. The car also has Porsche rims sprayed glossy black. Look on Ebay for them. Pretty cheap.

Buy black mirror caps from VW I think its about 20 pounds for a set and get the bonnet done with a stick on sheet like that and you are sorted  :evil:

Thanks for that Mike - you have inspired me!!!  :smiley:

Not for me as you would be taking the Oem Ed30 out of the car. Ltd editions should be left alone in looks Imo.

Although a limited edition I dont class it as the same style as the Mk4 limited edition as that looked much better than the standard mk4 - the mk5 isnt that much different to the standard car.

Anyway, you asked for people's thoughts - mine, I like it but needs to be done well.  Awesome's car is done similar and that looks nice.

That's the same paintjob I hope to have one day, only with my beloved sage green instead of silver  :grin:. With a real CF hood too of course.

I quite like that Hurdy, but make sure the C/F effect does not fade or peel.

I reckon do the mirrors and the roof but don't do the bonnet, key to this working is subtlety  !

Another thing Hurdy i looked at getting my other car vinyled and decided against it for a few reasons

1) the finish will never look like paint , or in this case real C/F
2) when they wrap it , they WILL leave marks underneath, i.e. scratches and such.
3) It will be a b!tch to take off and may leave marks/ and scratches when they do this.

Mistica how many kits !!! :shocked:
