How hard is it to keep white clean?First VW!!! View attachment 172608
White generally looks cleaner than most colors from far away I think. When you get closer you obviously can see the dirt pretty clearly.How hard is it to keep white clean?
Whats been bothering me about my stripes, is that they get soaked behind the doors every time it rains. and eventually, those edges will start coming off. I have a video of my install, showing how I wrapped it around the door edges. Its not that clean and bunches up, so I think it won't last forever.. But I do love stripes on white GTI's.. I lived in California most of my life, and now Virginia, but I was born in Dublin.
Do you have a link for your install?
Reason why I'm asking is because I currently have a tornado red GTI and am looking into getting into a white one now. Never had a white car before. I don't live in the Salt belt but I live in Chicago and the streets and sanitation trucks DUMP salt out here in the winter.it does hide scratches pretty well also; yes as long as you keep the little orange surface rust spots off/regularly clay & detail it looks nice and white for a long time. However after just a few drives the whole rear hatch gets so dusty so after ANY amount of rain it looks super dirty/ But that will go for any GTI
Looks great! Love the carport (?) and also those tips. What are those? Please share some more pics if you can.Got a new camera lens and took a test shot the other night. Not bad.... Need to install my Aerofabb rear spoiler that I've had for a month now lolView attachment 175802
