changed my wing mirror puddle lights to led units. toyed with the idea of having them blue but went for bright white. old on the left, new on the right.

LOL it did get a bit fluffy in there at points.
will get a night photo but tbh on a black car these are hardly visible anyway. a must for candy white owners, though...

um, i used a gloss black heat proof enamel (for engine blocks and exhausts). paint on, not a spray. about 8 quid from halfrauds.
similar to this i think:

Painting your brake centres makes all the difference. Why on Earth VW can't do this with something decent at the factory I will never know. My old TDi had rust on them at 10 months old.

i know, makes no sense; such a visible part of the car, too. will see if this holds up, doubt it's a permanent fix...
