Having removed the rear spoiler that was on my car when I first bought it, this afternoon I decided to have a good at another thing that's been getting to me for some time but I wasn't sure how to tackle. I've returned my lights to their original bug-eyed look which I "think" is a bit of an improvement??

Here's how they were:

This is today's look:

At this rate I'll be back to a plain GTI in no time at all!

Much more of an improvement without the eyebrows, I have never liked them.

 

[Reflex TDI]

Well it gets the thumbs up from me.[^] Don't like those stick-on things at all.

 

[Diesel]

Definately better without the eyebrows. They are not to my taste.

 

[pope1]

Always wanted to see what it would look like without but was afraid of buggering up the lights. In the end it was 10 minutes careful work with a sharp knife. Just didn't look properly before.

So how many times did you look at my car before and want to puke but were too polite to say anything? [^]

You know, some Anni headlights would look awesome with your white car!

Do you mean the ones with the black surrounds as opposed to the silver ones?

 

[Gti Fly]

Oh Gary don't you start as well. Next I'll be off to get some Anni Xenons when I really want to just sort out the skirts, get a big brake kit and then STOP SPENDING MONEY ON THIS SODDING CAR. Sorry, got carried away for a minute [:I].

 

[pope1]

OK, who's got pictures of Anni headlights on a silver car please?[:O]

Thanks Reflex. Don't laugh, but I've never seen that site before. Just added it to my VW links.

 

[Diesel]

Again, much better after the rear spoiler de mod too. Nice car.

You're up late tonight.

I agree about the wheels. Would like to get some RS4 or some BBS wheels and lower but not a good idea with the roads here. Learnt from experience with my last car. As it is the front spoiler just catches if I come down a steep slope and into a gutter. [!]

 

[Irish]

I work 1 til 6am Mon-Thurs so that's why !!

BBS would be nice alright, something about the MKIV and white, it pulls it off somehow I think.

pope.1 I see you've got the full MS Design kit, nice I've got the front valance on mine. I never liked the side skirts or the rear valance.

I know the kit is rare in the UK. Thats why I got the MS Design valance
