Black grille looks much better than the chrome. Nice work. I'd leave the wheels though.

That's a nice car!! I agree, leave the wheels as is.

Was it brand new? Also, were the DRL's retrofitted or do they come standard on the newer ones?

Looks good.

Some crappy phone pics with the brushed mirrors. They may need a bit more work, still too shiny. Wouldn't mind a professional colour code to gun metal including the wheels one day.

Does look good, but harder to tell it's an R32, may as well get a GTI - comes with a black grille!

Some pic of mine with silver mirror caps:

I like the brushed alloy look it has. Distingushes it from the other golf models.

Here are some pics of black on black to give you an idea:

^ Should paint the calipers & indicators black if that's your thing..

Those kind of mods just makes the car look cheap, but each to their own i guess.
