If you selected a few other bits to subtly colour you could make it electric blue....

I did it to my 6n, it looked pretty crap because it didn't define anything. It would be nice in a different colour, but it looked pointless.

Its a shame. But it passed some time...

Ive been working on another little venture that should work a treat though...If only halfords mixed the paint correctly i'd of had a DIY thread up now!

Not very happy with Halfords, barstuards!

how about getting some sort of shiney silver tape or piping or whatever.

i think shiney silver will compliment the big VW badge and GTi badge also
