Phase 2 GTi

Good colour match on the bumper, better than mine :lol:
As for tinting, don't bother imo, anything dark enough to make the cost worthwhile will just turn the almera into a van, like Sam's pic he posted.
 
Looks like they did a good job on your bumper matey.

My gti was tinted all round before I got it and not had any bother from plod as of yet, have a look on the my ride section dude see what you think :thumb:
 
A little update -

A while ago I had a front brake caliper seize, so I replaced both of the fronts with re-con parts, which came in silver... My previous ones were red, so I had a bit of a mixture for a while as the carriers were still red. So this is them looking abit sorry for themselves:

So at the weekend finally decided to sort them out, here is the result:

Looks a lot more tidy now, and another little job off my list!:lol:

Hope you like!

I'm not going to replace them because of a bit of surface rust, its only on the areas where the pads don't touch, but these parts weren't treated to protected against rust - like you can get the discs with the protective coating on the outer edge and the main boss, but these were just a solid lump, no coating. I agree, they look shite with the rust...but I will get better ones when they are really needed
 
Beautiful weekend called for a car cleaning sesh followed by some pics.... Its the first time I've had some taken with a decent camera (other than Ed's at JAE).

After a wash, polish and wax we have this:

Yes, you did indeed! ;)

Cheers for all the other comments guys! Its amazing how much difference a quality camera makes, so detailed and sharp! Love it! Need to get one of my own, but I do believe they are a fair few pennies! Was amazed how they turned out. It was actually the first time I have ever used polish before wax as well, makes a hell of a difference.
