Start a bank account as a new car fund.
Whenever daft modding urges pop into your noggin just price them up and pay the money into the account.

That way you'll keep a perfect GTI and have lots of dosh for the Mk7.

well just to be stubborn , I still like it  :cool:

carbon are nice but maybe too subtle

rare in the uk on a mkv , so thats a good thing
dont mind I'm copying Audi , because it still looks good imho (besides I am a wannabe S3  :grin:)
Gaz I can handle as he'll be to busy trying to tell me about his Haldex  :tongue: while I whisk past [wish :tongue:]

Hurdy thanks for the offer , but I need chrome (to be able to make it brushed effect)
(unless you can find a good brushed effect satin chrome finish!)

Egbert , common sense yes , but thats too boring :smiley:
