Evening folks.. I've just fitted my new rust free tailgate to the Mk3..

I'm looking for ideas/inspiration on what I should do to it.. I'm not getting it professionaly painted becasue it is going to have a bike rack on it 5 days a week for the next few months so will just get marked.

Needing Ideas on what I could do..

So far I've thought of just painting it same as the car myself so it doesnt stand out too much or do something funky.. Car will be down about 100 - 110mm on D90's..

Anyone help then let me know.. Heres a pic of the back just now..

smooth the wiper, trim the plate recess down, get a popper on it and de lock, leaving the VW badge, but in black.

Yesh, weld a plate over the number plate recess making it shallower like alot of MK2's have done!

Loose the wiper and spray it yourself until you finsihed with the bike racks then get it done by a pro
