To code, or not to code?

[Whubbsie]

and if you do this please dont use fake splits like him

what do you mean by fake splits? the rims?

[madglf3]

I like the second option. I think some coding is needed but I dig a little texture now and then. Are you going to lower it soon?

Debadge it maybe?

Maybe.. I kinda like the idea of keeping it badged.. Especially the TDI part lol.. If anything i'll change the badges to the Mk4 style so it's like the rest of the VW range..

I'm still waiting for the phone call to say that my springs have arrived. No rush though, more time means I get to save more money for it. I also like the idea of having a little texture in the middle and it looks great on brigher coloured cars, but I don't think it'll stand out enough on a black car...

Mate I'd go full colour cos textured bumpers belong on the mk3's

But in seriousness, yeah, full colour !

Was waiting for you to comment.. If the textured part didn't come up so far (Mk4 Bora style) it'd be ok.. But it comes up half way and shows way too much plastic.

I reckon I will go all the way though (provided it can be done and the experimentation with my old bumper goes well)..

yep

fake BBS's



ot: has it been lowered yet? can wait to see it lowered and colour coded

and yes +1 more vote for debadged (jetta's look so clean when done )

Paint it all mate

Nope hasn't been lowered yet.. Still waiting for the H&R's to arrive! But as I said, it's ok if it take a little longer as it gives me more time to save up.

I'm not too sure about the debadging.. I won't be taking the VW badge off but I'm getting the "Jetta" badge removed when I get the bumper installed

Colour code it mate, as soon as you colour code skirts and bumpers the car looks like it's been going to the Gym, and put on some solid muscle, it will also instantly look like it's been lowered a bit.

The car went in yesterday and the panel beater cut a section of my old bumper out and painted it.. To get a decent result, it has to be painted twice ($$$$) BUT you can still see a little texture. So I'm going to leave it standard for now and if it really bugs me after a while (and I have the cash to do it) I'll do it at a later date. I'll post a pic of the part tomorrow when I can get one
