[adzy]

[Jorge]

Add Red pinstripe to the carbon fiber mirrors.... Still not sure about it ....

Gave it a wash with the massive help from AusScare.. I'd have no hope or chance without him haha

Haha thanks mate! Just realised however that under the right headlight, I didn't align the bumper to the right track so it's back to my garage

Looks great, Alex. What was the slug for shipping from tmtuning?

Yeah I had that issue.

Those headlights are designed for a standard MK5 bumper not the GT/GTI/Jetta bumper so there is one tab under the middle of the headlight that won't line up.

No biggie

Benough, I thought you had GT headlights; did you upgrade to the projector 'hid look' lights?

I wonder if anyone wants to sell their 'smoked'/GT style headlights, having upgraded to this HID look (or the HID upgrade/OEM HID)?

Looks great on your darker coloured cars!

(I took my car for a drive / BBQ / marina visit to Bobbin Head to recharge some batteries)

I'm guessing "slug" means the price? Haha if so, it was only $63USD plus about $18USD for international handling and ordering. The lights themselves were only $551USD as they had a 20% sale!

Had a 75k service!

Did it cost you $99 installed or just for the part?

Yeah I have the HELLA Halogen Projectors. They still throw a better light than a relector. You get the same cutoff as the xenons. Also they work great when you have a HID kit in there.

Mine aren't for sale sorry, if I ever have to revert back to stock.

I think it looks pretty good.

I dig those MK6-esque headlights though.

Added washers to my springs for the auto hatch open. Works much better now.

Also took out my MDI kit from the armrest and put it around the right way.
