Always drive with mine on. Police never pulled me for it. Been pulled for my HID headlights but not the fogs. A wouldn't worry about police like. All they would say was turn them off

Its just red tape I bought from halfrauds, but only had it on afew weeks then when I washed the car it just came off. Iv just bought the Sel grill from ebay, my plan is to mask the grill and paint the silver trim red.. So it should last longer and not wash off lol. It does make the car look better like, im suprised the GTI didnt already come with the red bottom grill.

Ok so I bought the Sel grill and my plan was to paint the silver trim.... Heres what iv done so far.
Image

I masked the black plastic off ready to paint... Had a cheeky drink :-)

I then started to spray the trim red, I had to do 2 or 3 coats tho
Image

the finished result... What does everyone think?? Not a bad job if I say so myself lol :-D

Well the red spary on the Sel grill is slightly different to the red on the Gti grill but its not that much really... A blind man on a galloping horse wouldnt beable to notice the difference lol.
Il prob fit it next week now, coz iv been really busy plus its my birthday weekend :-)
