Absolutely Loving it mate!

Though agree with Brummy, the spoiler looks out of place, maybe if you did the whole roof in that colour?

Keep it up though!!

Thanks for all the comments,

thats quite nice.. personally I would have left the spoiler white (or sprayed it white, whatever).

:D




* do those guages actually work?

i see where your coming from with the spoiler to be honest, was supposed to go with the wing mirrors but from behind you cant see them... lol, i was thinking of red checkers on the roof ?

Yeah the guages work fairly simple to wire up, especially when you can get all the information about the standard "sandwich plate" from flapper! They read pressure, temp and volts

The gti's read oil temp and have a low pressure warning buzzer which is read from two senders located here:

This is how mine looked standard, top is the low pressure sender and the left is the oil temp, on the right it just an allen key blanking plate, can screw the new senders for the gauges into these.

No it reads oil pressure, oil temperature, and volts.
Vinyl, that way if you mess up or don't like it its easily changeable :)

This is true! lol
