Looks good! I nearly bought a set of Bola's for my golf. Just not sure how they suit the mk5?

They look much better in the flesh, you can't really see the dish in the pictures.

Looks good, quick question where'd you get the intercooler from with the red tubing?

Time for Stage 2!
Starting with:
Revo engine mounts
3" downpipe
MTec slotted disks and mintex pads
Braided brake lines
A damn good service!!

Engine mounts in:




Quick plug swap whilst I'm tinkering, old plugs don't look too bad.



All back together again, time for a quick jaunt to test her out

Engine mounts are amazing, completely change the drive of the car. Down pipe has not made much difference, feeling a suitcase delete is in order.

Today I fitted the MTec brakes and HC red braided hardlines. Also I dropped the car another inch.

Before



After



With wheel on



Then I degreased the engine



Will take pictures of new stance once the rain stops.

I used muck off and a sponge, then I gave it a quick light rinse.

I will also say - hardlines for the brakes, what a difference!!!

I'm sure they aren't, but the wheels look huge!
