Re: few more pics and new ones of my b5.5 estate

think am gonna colour code the splitter looking good mate, but then I would say that, something about silver wagons :D I like the use of the extra fly eye vinyl, love the wheels, like the splitter but at the same time i'm not sure because of the coloured lowers :???: either way nice motor mate :-bd
