As my GTI has now been delayed to week 5, I'm debating whether to change my order from solid black to laser blue (similar to R32 deep blue). But I'm not sure whether the black plastic bits will go that well with the blue - rear bumper, side sills and front black grill surround and grills. I know I could colour code the rear bumper and sills, but assume I'm not going to for the purpose of the vote.

What do you reckon?

Get the black. I dont want many laser blue ones around when I eventually get mine[]

I've ordered diamond black, I have it on my MkIV and it is definately the best colour, especially when polished

I thought the GTI was black, red or white only?? or have they extended the colour range

 

[TurboTrev]

The full colour range is available according to the GTI bochure (and the website). I think originally it was only going to be the 3 colours.

I meant pics of the GTI in any colour but red btw... or have they only released shots of that colour?

 

[JMcQueen]

I've only seen shots of the GTI in Red, White and Black but according to the website etc the full colour range is available.

 

[Cat1.4]

Oh yeah, I've seen the white now too come to think of it. Sorry!

Got any pics of the black you can post up?

Ah, cool thanks. Here's the black for ppl who can't be bothered doing the above:

All we need now is someone to convert the black paint to laser blue, then we'll be able to compare them!

Is that metallic black or flat black?
