ive thought about painting mine, but then its a black car, and its black and looks decent enough, but if i had a silver or a red GTi i would definantly colour code it

Here's one of my GTi from back in March 2005 :)

The bright sun helps to show up the contrast between painted bumper and plastic splitter! I have no plans to colour code it though, like it as it is.

I wouldn't bother on a black car.You'll not notice it.

Plus if you ever catch the splitter on anything you aint gonna chip any paint off.

Good lad :wink:

PieGTi has got it spot on, if/when you and I lower our Polos, its less of a risk to bump an unpainted splitter than a shiny painted one!

I think I would suffer the worst damage if I caught it if I lower it because mine is colour coded as well as being smoothed into the bumper :lol:
