Looks sleek mate. I would prefer it without Racing R. But I like things suttle.
Any other plans?

Cheers, Put the 'R' badge on for a bit of interest & for something different!
Planning to put coillies & poss a set of G60's on. Plus all 4 doors really need a blow over, as found out how bad they were on the lower half when i took off the rub-strips (full of filler on pass. side & a few dints on drivers door on the waistline), put 'em back on quick!

Glad you like it too, I was torn between this one or standard badgeless grille. This one I got off ebay for £16 posted, so that made my mind up!

Got the 'R' badge seperate to make it a bit more 'unique' to me!
And no, I didn't nick ya wipers!

Too far to Hull!

Yeh! Someone who thinks like me.

Felt the blue badge would be nice but not to in ya face, plus I can use a blue/silver theme thru' other bits I may do on the car.

Well thats the idea!

Looking good. I'm quite fond of those grills and i think the badge sets them off. The dubs starting to pull together now.

Looking good guys
You know its funny, the minute i stick an 'edition' foil down the side of my car, I have a person rip it out of me, but things like R and Wolfsburg Edition are even more suggestive lol
Regardless, I think both look great

Uniqueness is a step in the right direction!
As for wipers, its amazing how many people have adopted the Aero replacement blades. Who got theirs from VW?
