Liking all the black mate. I always like the debadged look on the boot like loosing the gti but looking good mate.
Yes your badge :-p
Since I've put it on I've considered losing the gti aswell cos I think the smaller badge finishes off the boot so watch this space

Yeah mate leather ftw! Its a nightmare on a hot summers day but in the winter its boss
The standard GTI seats are shocking to be honest so its either OEM leather or replace the originals

Still in bits, but I'm told on the road the end of April.
I hope anyway.

I used poorboys white diamond stuff you told me about, was really good stuff to use and it smelt soooo nice :p
no mate I havent done the sill yet I've decided to wait untill I get a full respray which I'm hoping will be very soon I just need to start putting money back, my exhaust and manifold will have to wait lol

Nice one

Poorboys stuff is immense! best stuff I have ever used if i'm honest
How much have you been quoted for the sill repair dude?
Most places tend to charge £2000-3000 for a full respray (bare metal) that's for a top job

the few places I went said between £2-300 and a few people i know who will paint it is at least £1000 so considering I'm gonna get a full respray someday I might aswell do it now and get all the imperfections sorted out

Yeah £200-300 sounds about right for the sill
The difficult thing with Silver cars is getting the paint to match so I can see why you would consider a full respray, especially if you can get it done for a decent price
