looks really nice that mate !! powder coat on the wheels is lush !

go for the back roof with the black upper spoiler as well. have seen it done looks good. was gonna do it on mine but ran out of funds.

with regards to the tint on the light the best way to do it in my opinion is to take it to a spray shop. all they do is mix a bit of black paint into clear lacquer and spray it on.

I think if I am gonna get the roof black then thats the way I'm gonna get it done :P

Oh really, I'd say its a cheap enough mod to do too, just as long as its not too dark and the police start annoying me! :/

Not the best angle to see the roof but you can see it :) This 6R GTi is currently for sale on the Used Cars section on the VW website, there's more images on there!

Was having a look there and then decided to go out and look at my own roof... After about 5 minutes I still dunno where the black would stop, there is no ridge or anything? :? The GTI spoiler must just be slightly different to ours.

That stuff looks really dark. Highly doubt I'd even get away with that! Would look well though :D

It is a lovely 6R, just needs coilovers or springs fitted and it would be perfect! :P

Would someone be able to photoshop a black roof onto this picture please? :)

Image

And then one of these pictures photoshop the roof black but then on the top of the spoiler fade out the black in a checkered design so that there is no blunt ending to the black.

Thanks! :P
