The honeycomb grill looks great
What bulbs did you use?
I've got Eurodezigns H7 and LED sidelights, they look really white. Try taking a night shot for the headlights.

I got them from vagparts, they are branded as VW.
Thanks and I will take a night shot of the headlights. They are just a xenon effect bulbs for now as I can't afford xenons lol.

Right, I just went and took a couple of pics now its dark.
Sorry for the poor quality, took them on my phone and its not great in the dark, but I think you can just about tell the new bulbs are more white than the original bulbs which seemed sort of yellow.

Cheapest mods are sometimes the most noticable
Then get some plain pressed plates and your well away
The GTi grille was the first thing i bought for my car lol

It's not been the first thing I bought, but then you started with a car which I assume had CL already installed
I am gonna get all the minor cosmetic bits out the way before I go lowering the car because of the insurance for now

I don't mind though, can plan it better and have summit to look forward to.
