Looks good mate ;)

Where did you get the lower sticker?

PM me please.

One of the best silver 6n2s i've seen so far, the wheels really suit it.

What technique did you use to remove the rubstrips on the front bumper? I want to remove all of my rubstribs for spraying, I believe they are held on with some sort of clips?

Do the gti clocks just plug in? or is it more complicated than that, the gti ones have outside temperature don't they?

yep just plug and play, i had to have mileage correction done tho as the clocks said 99000 and my car has only do 65000 but that was only £20 to have that put right. the outside temp doesnt work, it just says ------.
