This is how the white lights really look like.

Ahh that looks much better than the initial pics you posted. It really works well with the colour of your car imo

Thanks! Yes, they look really good in person.

Love the build, but dammit move that plate to the open fog light or something. Ruining your intercooler air flow!

Rear Valance installed! The car is terribly dirty, i will be washing it this sunday and taking better pictures with my real camera

Yep, perfect

[matiasg85]

Thanks a lot guys, it's nice to see others like what you have done!

Here are some pictures i took this afternoon after washing it:

I think it looked better with the body coloured valance and lip, although maybe it's cos I've got the black plastic ones that you have now. Another case of grass is always greener I think! Regardless, your car looks incredible, very tastefully modded

I love how the black front lip, side skirts and valance flow and align perfectly from front to rear, a really sporty accent to break up the silver, I'd like to see it with the full black front grill (GTI style).

Your car looks sporty and as has already been said, tasteful.

Congratulations

here is your next mod...haha

Thanks man, i'm doing the front grill in black with plastidip along with a pair of passat b6 mirror covers plastidiped as well.

Dual exhaust or the spoiler? I'm thinking about the spoiler.

[Creampuff]

both is a good option?

[Fatherless One]

The dual exhaust would look good, but not the spoiler, the lines of your car are nice and smooth and a spoiler would take away from that clean sleek flow.

I wouldn't change the colour of the mirror caps to anything other than a brushed silver (mk7 R style) if at all, they would then match the wheel colour, don't go dark with them.

Just my opinions btw

Very much looking forward to the black grill At least with plastidip you can remove it reasonably easily if you don't like the result.

Hi, lil'update, plastidiped the red trim, will be like this for a while till i get bored and get the whole center part in black
