i like it, the rear shot is my favourite as it looks a bit like my old black Golf GTI with the deep dish type rims

doubt it was me, not been near the airport for ages.
loving the car tho, was wanting to do that sort of thing to my standard lights ages ago but could never be bothered finding out how so i got the angel eyes instead

maybe it was somthing else with TT wheels just spotted them!! get the angel eyes done that will be cool!! just give them a quick rub with some grey scotchy an see if somone will give them a quick blast with some paint for you!! remember the clear coat

might give it a try o the standard lights firstas theresitting collecting dust anyway! you got any more details onthe process? stuff used etc..

awas goiny pm you an say try the standard ones first just incase!! just use grey scotch brite pad think you might get it in halfords?? then good clean with thiners! get what ever colour u pick spray can would be fine and just give it a wee coat! you can allways go over it again if it aint dark enough!! then when the colour is fine just get a can of clear laquer an put two coats on them!! pretty easy
