Cheers boys
Yea don't worry Ash that front fitment will be sorted out, the alignment is all out to whack which is pushing it out like that too. The end result (probably after I mill the inside of the wheel a tad) will be flush or ever so slightly poked like the rear.
Tyres will be 195/40/17, surprisingly I found they are legal on LVVTA's tyre/wheel spec sheet so that's handy for cert purposes
These will be my 'winter wheels'. Once I sell the GTI the SSR's will come off and will be my winter project. I will get them refurbed for next summer. I'm thinking redoing them in white would look pretty fly

When the car is done though I may have to try on an LM to see how your gold looks, because that would look pretty hot too I'd say
Rear hatch - not sold on the clean look, I'm 50/50. Plus that would mean new glass as there would be the three mounting holes otherwise. Rear heated glass = $$$$
There was some debate as to whether I should leave the spoiler black or colour coded. I think colour coded suits the white better though
Tail lights - yea I'm 50/50% on whether I like the current ones. I think they need a good buff to be honest, they just look dull. I was contemplating some of those two tonne FK ones though, top half clear or tinted, bottom half red. I think the whole car needs to be complete though to make that call
