Hi from Belgium

Go for the bronze, they will look stunning. I also have bronze wheels on my dynamic grey ST 280, I love them! Good luck with your choice

Looks good.

I'm surprised that there's enough of a flat area to stick it to as the wing profile is quite curved there.

It's quite curved but still flat enough on that spot and I don't think this should cause any problem, we'll see.

I've added a VZ badge on both front fenders. I always liked the way VW did this on GTI's so I'd tried it myself and tbh it looks pretty OEM.

Do you have the part number of the badge please?

I ordered them on vag247.com, couldn't find them cheaper.

Collected the car today in Germany and drove it home (570km).
Man, what a car! Absolutely enjoyed the ride home. Just need to do some paperwork and technical inspection to put it on Belgian numberplates and we're good to go, should only take a couple of days.

Cheers!

Is the registration a sort of temporary one due to you 'exporting' the car out of Germany? It looks different to regular ones, particularly the dated area on the red background - it doesn't even have a 'D' marker on it.

Yes, these were temporary license plates. We had to go to an office (KFZ-Zulassungstelle) where we applied for export plates. They registered the plates and the insurance in my name, and then I could drive it for a month. That gave me enough time to arrange the necessary paperwork and have the car inspected in Belgium. After that, my insurance company could register the car and put Belgian plates on it. That only took four business days.
