Hello Everyone,
Sold my previous Mk7.5 GTD last February after I saw my current Mk7.5 GTI down at Agnews Boucher Road, which happened to be the specification I was looking for in a GTI for 3 years. (Previous GTD build here White Silver Mk7.5 GTD )
Photos of it at the forecourt
Finally got it home, beside my old GTD
Spec List over standard for the car includes:
Performance Pack
Climate Windscreen
7-Speed DSG (DQ381)
Vienna Leather
Panoramic Sunroof
Dynaudio Excite System
Discover Pro Radio
Rear Camera
19in Santiago Alloys
Firstly the most important bit I had carried out was a having a Front End Paint Protection Film applied to the Bumper, Bonnet, Arches, Headlights and Wing Mirrors as well as the rear boot lip beneath the boot lid was wrapped by Complete Car Care Company in Lisburn. As my previous car seemed to pick up stone chips very easily despite sitting far back from other cars.
Whilst it was in getting wrapped they also wrapped the roof gloss black to tie into the sunroof. Darren did a fantastic job on both.
Following on from this, the car came with aftermarket carpet mats in the car, not to my personal taste so I swapped them out with my old Weathertech Rubber Mats from the GTD.
I then broke out the Rupes Bigfoot and corrected the paintwork followed by applying a ceramic coating to the paintwork and hydrophobic coating to the wrapped areas. I also painted the Brake Disc Hubs and they were getting rusty, and could do with a freshen up.
Currently I'm mulling over choosing some new alloys for the car, but thought I might as well try on my old BBS CI-R 19's (Et45 8.5J) from the GTD wrapped in Michelin PS4S's (225/35R19). Not too certain if I like the complete dark theme on the car so took them off and put the Santiago's back on and then swapped the Michelins onto the Santiagos as the Pirelli P-Zero's (Fairly new) just weren't cutting it for me.
Recently fitted some Gloss Black Mirror Caps as well to tie into the Dark Theme.
I also got the rear three windows tinted up to the optional factory spec (90%).
