Silky, did you get my PM about the rear badge?
Car did look amazing at Inters, and as Ollie said I couldn't believe it when I looked across. I saw the plate and thought I know that car, it didn't look like that the last time I saw it

Alright mate, can you PM me the details on how the rear badge is done.
I've got an idea in mind but need to know what I'll need.

We did think about getting the doors smoothed especially after the work that went into the Audi items, but never really liked the totally smoothed look.
I reckon your car will carry it off better.
Don't think we'll be at Summer Fest, due to work constraints
Oh yeh and the engine is stock bar the exhaust

oh no handles are staying....just the bumpstrips, same with the boot im not keen on the flush look thats why the mk5 handle works so well.
ah bugger well i guess i'll have to wait to E38 or the Poloshow to see it then!

Sorry mate thought you said smoothed door handles. Smoothed sides make a huge difference.
BTW...Mk5 rear handle looks s**t!!! You can see it above
Yes will be at E38 for def.
