Jowey Posted August 3, 2008 Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 its because the bumper is arched more than it should i think mate as the 3L essentially has the same shape wings as a gti..( without the flared arches..)so might be worth ordering some 3L wings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobydoo Posted August 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 for the 3l wings to look good the sill need to be extended to which is a bit out of my league. could prob do it but without a garage it would be a pain. i jus gonna try and stick it down with somethin as it can come off with the bumper if needs be anyway.

Blue Loop Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 That's looking ace mate, great job How about either painting the mirrors in matt black (as the grille) or the grille in the same black as the mirrors? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattyA Posted August 16, 2008 Report Share Posted August 16, 2008 Glad you had the grille done in Satin Black, I'd be getting oem mirrors on with satin black covers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobydoo Posted August 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2008 i do love the standard mirrors but i also like having something a bit different. i think these mirrors look best when u walk towards the car from the front as they seem almost tucked away. once they r satin should be sweet. best get me finger out ed38 soon...had the grille stuck down to for a while but the sealer wasnt strong enough. need something more potent....cheers everyonestill waiting to get some decent pics but the sun is hiding.Glen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobydoo Posted August 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 (edited) gotta leave for ed38 in less tha 14 hours haha. got my mirrors off last nite and giv them a quick coat of satin black. jus got them back on the car. plate is now in the right place. removed one of the many dings in my wheels too. cleaned the inside so far. gotta leave the outside till later as no doubt i'll be running about like a headless chicken for things ive forgot to get. c ya'll at editionGlen Edited September 29, 2008 by scoobydoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
