also the gear change from the O2J tower and shifter is great compared to the o2a tower setup

Just checking, on gti/driver models the decals on the rear window is there decals on black cars? I know silver and red cars have black decals , and also where can I buy decals?

I have a decal on my black one and believe they were standard for all gti. I think I brought mine from classic vw. Read my project thread for tips how to apply.

would mine look odd if I put the gti side stripes on and left the chrome trim on ? Would it put off potential buyers do you reckon?

If building to sell then leave them off all together are a personal choice so best to have blank canvas. Only about £250 to have professionally supplied and fitted. I did a diy job for about £100. I saw gold ones at the AGM and liked that look so leave alone for buyer to change. Enthusiasts buy mk1 golfs and not joe public so they know what they want and what they will be wanting to change.

Cheers mate I've bought the stripes along with new badges and a few other bits of trim and my bestest buddy ever is putting the stripes on for me , I was going to put the waistline trim on a cabby I'm putting together and buy black waistline trim for the tintop.

Good luck to him. Out of rebuilding mine the lower decal was the hardest job. Even worse than a new roof lining. Make sure he knows what he is in for before he starts or you may end up falling out 🤞

Then I'm thinking leave tin tip as it is keep the spending to a minimum but then again I want try get as much as I can for the car so the factory look is probably the way to go

If you haven't fitted them yet this was at the AGM and looked pretty nice with a simple change from silver.
