Same here, its mint.

Phill, what did you use to plug the hole left by the motor and wiper in the tailgate? I don't mind if you want to PM me details if its something secret (you never know)

Looks great anyway, the S2000 aerial is a huge improvement, I have one myself, makes it look a lot less like a bumper car

would anyone be able to photoshop a black b-pillar ont my car please?

cheers!

I dont think it will suit your car 1 being it a 5 dr and 2 being dragon green, not knocking your car as my last car was the exact same model as yours.

5dr Dragon Green looked so good when it was clean.......

Haha, its very easy to do and very effective. These little mods make all the difference, also did this:

Now thats a mod I have been thinking of for a while, having black Gti the mirror stands out more.

where did you get your mirror from and how did u fit it with some sort of glue...

Yeah i would like to know about the mirror too, it stands out like a sore thumb!

PhilGTi · Post by **PhilGTi** » Thu Jan 12, 2006 8:10 pm

Well i didnt really know how to fit it either, but on further inspection i realised.

Look at the back of the mirror, its got a ball joint that holds it onto the arm thing. Pull the actual mirror (including outside plastic) off the arm.

Then grab ahold of the arm and twist it to the right, it then comes off in you hand, leaving the sucker on the window. Repeat process to re-attatch the new mirror.

Got the black one for Â£3.00 from the local scrappy

Car had only 22k on the clock so the interior was spotless, nothing but the best for my gti. The bloke thought i was a right prat.

Your car looks amazing and looks so clean and simple. Corr. I wish I got silver now. But then again I wish I had red as well. Tell you what, I wish I had another two. One in red and one in silver.

Yeh thats the same as me!! Everytime i see a Black polo gti im like, damn why didnt i get black, then i see a shiny red one and im like, man should have got red. Guess its fate that i couldnt find a nice black or red one.

Its off a MK4 1.4 8v green polo. The darker MK4's have them.

PhilGTi · Post by **PhilGTi** » Thu Jan 12, 2006 9:45 pm

Plus i think the GTi sits lower then the none GTi, somehow.
