What did you do to your mk7 today?

Front Lip

Installed a new lip over the weekend and put some lamin-x over the yellow side markers

I'm looking for a replacement front lip too - can you provide me with details please? Easy replacement of OEM? Thanks

Just got my gti 4 days ago... yesterday got the windows tinted and found out I have 3 small stone chips on the tailgate glass... no idea how it happened or if my car was delivered like that...
Sad day ....

Rear bumper protector is in carbon fibre 3M vinyl - direct from e-bay @ £11.00 - it fits the MK7 well and looks good but will be changing it shortly for a full bumper protector
from RearGuards - RBP588 - Carbon @ £52.00. The RearGuard one covers the whole width of the top bumper edge over to the lip where the parking sensors are.See link below

The headlights eye-brows I did myself again with 3M Carbon Fibre vinyl I purchased. only cost around £10 for couple of metres roll. Easy to cut and apply so don't but the
plastic ones they're not worth it!

I'd love to know where you got the front lip spoiler from? Any details please?

Thanks

There is no oem lip option afaik. The lip is from Maxton design in the UK. It is available from Black Forest industries in the states.

On order at the moment and having to be made by the factory so should be able to collect it next week (they are only about 8 miles from me)...pictures will be uploaded once done.

anybody had this issue before? Got in the car this morning and can't select a drive mode. Worked fine last night.

I have something similar. My car wont show me what drive mode I'm on and is perpetually stuck with the individual mode highlighted. But I can actually cycle through the modes as usual. I just can't actually see which mode I'm in based on that drive mode screen. Planning to take it in to the dealer soon

Weird. I wonder if disconnecting the battery will fix it. Might try that before taking it in since I've got an APR flash on it.

Let me know how that works! I also have a problem with some minor squealing in the back which I know other users have mentioned and am due for an oil change so I might just do it all in one go but would still love to hear if the reset works

Well i do live in DC metro area, known for 2nd worst drivers in the country.

Got the windows tinted... 20% ceramic tint, my tint guy even got the little 1/4 windows. Had removed the a pillars for him just to be on the safe side.

Got a muffler delete done. Paid 160$ which i agree is kind of steep but compared to an 1100$ exhaust that sounds the same if not worse it is well worth it.
