Well been trying like mad to sort out all the vinyl.
Vauxhall only have the gsi door stickers left, so got them today.
Got genuine B-pillar vinyls coming over from Amsterdam as we speak.
Now the rear vinyls im in two minds about.
Picked up a genuine set today, its got vauxhall on the right though. A bit looks a bit like the badging on basic models. Which im not to sure about, and i also think the gsi badge may be squint.
Also got a set of replica vinyl from Steve, which im faveouring more as the quality is excellant. Only problem is with the G on the sticker
Do you think it will be easily noticed?
Oh car is also away at bodyshop

Looks brilliant! Really do like the idea of the car. Are you taking it to any shows this year? Look forward to seeing it if you are.
1.6T will be great fun. A lad round my way had one a few years ago with a dry sump etc. Was a lot of fun

Well done for finding a GSi rear black panel vinyl too. I wanted one for mine when I was rebuilding one...5 years ago and couldn't get one. Had to have one made up in the end.

I like those rear lights - apart from one little thing which I think should be changed - the frames of those rear lights should be black like the standard lights! They look horrible with red frames, would look mint if they were black IMO
