That looks just great, the bumpers look awesome colour coded like that instead of the normal satin black. They did a real good job on it all, bet is a pleasure to drive now with everyone looking in admiration :)

Hi Drucifer, thanks very much...glad you like the bumpers, they are one of my favourite bits to. Yes it has been amazing driving it, I have had a fair few smiles. Weirdly so far it is attracting less attention than his old look, I think that is because the stars were so distinctive.

I definitely prefer the new look though :D

I keep forgetting it's painted and I get a shock when I get home.

Hi everyone,

I have entered Herman in the spring dub show and shine competition on 1st of March. It is a weird system where you upload a photo and people vote if they like your vehicle. From some of the VW's on the website I think people have had there cars up for a while.

I wondered if people would mind going on and voting for him if you like the look of him...will take less than 60 secs and I would really appreciate it. He is currently 23rd and I would like to get him up the ranking so I have the potential to be picked to go in the main hall on the day. Appreciate I won't win but would be amazing if we had a T25 in there. If you could vote I would really appreciate it. Please only vote once.

Thanks

Marcus
