what do you want to do to your carpet ?... if you ave the light grey one i seriously WOULDNT fabric spray it... it would wear away quicker than vanilla ice's rap carrer and would just look absolutely awful ! there is a guy in the sale section selling some gti carpet just a very almost black dark grey would be worth putting that in rather than respraying light gray carpet

what other plans do you have for you car mate ?

yeah I didn't mean spray carpet i wouldn't bother since that probably gets the most ware out of everything, interior. well im hoping to lower it soon and get rid of all the scratches from my lil incident and then im planning on:

New alloys (borbet T's probably)
Tint windows ( rear 3)
Smooth off by front and rear bumpers im still decideing as there colour coded at the moment.
GTi splitter
Leather interior front and rear
And then some sexual ICE

Got a few ideas floating about but I go on holiday in 11 days and well i need my cash for that so I don't really want to spend anything...

Just got some xenon bulbs through the post but I remember talking to a mate about illegal bulbs. What's the highest wattage you can use? these are 130/100w think I cant remember 100%

130/100W bulbs are illegal for use on UK roads. Its off road use and private roads only as they create too much light for oncoming traffic.

If I were you, I wouldnt put them in. If you want a xenon look, get HIDs, or get proper 55W xenon effect bulbs.

yup but make sure they are H7 or they wont fit

there are also different brigtness 6000k and 8000k are the most popular i think 6000k is factory brightness for xenons, 8000k give it that little bit more but note the higher you go the more blue the light looks at a distance...

i personally would and am getting 8000k to put in the angel eyes i just got...

I personally would never go higher than 6000k - it attracts more police attention if its higher!
