I wouldnt put a GSi kit on it, Looks awesome as it is mate.

That aside, Looks much better without a badge on the grill.

Personally a GSI kit should remain on a GSI, but if your going to fit the kit, I wouldnt paint the tops black.

Leave the car the way it is, but no offence I seen the car the other day and to make the car that little bit more fresh a good buff would sort it right out.

Steady on, I wasnt getting at you, G3 and hard pad should do the trick followed by a polish and a soft pad. See Kev at H20 (In beside Trix) as hes the man that will be able to machine buff it.
