Looking much better mate 👌🏻
Thanks Rich! That splitter was a pain to get on. :)

Love the new look on yours mate, colour and spoiler looks amazing! Love the touch of red on the diffuser as well! 8)

VW offered the option of the Spektrum colour range on the mk7.5 Golf in some markets, and there are some interesting colours there that might give you some ideas for your next colour change;

I remember this but the price for "custom"paint was exorbitant. such a pity.

Yes, it was very expensive. The Spektrum range wasn’t offered in the UK but in those countries where it was available it cost the equivalent of about £2,000 (nearly 42,000 ZAR) for a Spektrum colour. I don’t think I’d spend that much on a paint colour 😯.

Add to that an Akrapovic exhaust system (Golf of course) and we looking at close to 5500 GBP, wow! Just bonkers.

Here’s my 2019 Polo GTI+, going for a blacked out kind of spec. Will eventually get the front badge blacked, and recently done the back badge. Other than wind deflectors haven’t done many other mods. I like a OEM + look

It’s been featured on a few Polo specific pages, so that’s probably why haha

Great spot - Some better pics of the mud flaps would be nice, not keen on the factory fitment bit too much. What make are they?
