Rippers 'never' finished black gti build

[Andy]

looks pretty  good--this is what i did to my old gttdi

[Rippers]

I've decided I'm going back to chrome, I like the black but its drawing to much chav attention 

[Rippers]

Hi all
Not much has happened lately to the car, I'm still enjoying being a mk5 owner. Decided to give her a good clean today and get some nattys wax on and rim wax ready for the winter months.



Tucked up in bed.





Decided to put a mk4 chrome rear badge on also. Back to sleeper mode.

Thanks for looking.

Great build thread bud, certainly inspiration for when I pick mine up

Thanks mate, have to found one yet or are you still shopping??

I've put a deposit on the laser blue one I linked in my thread, looks cleaner in real life inside and out and so smooth to drive, went for my clutch a few times though  , and I got him to put the bbs vz 18s on off another golf, just trying to sort out selling my ST back to the garage I bought it off, saw him Sunday and he wanted to buy it there and then but now I can't get him to answer texts.

I need the cash to buy the golf

Lovely looking car fella.

I will be keeping an eye on this thread for inspiration as i have a 05 so things like the rear badge you've done will be the same on mine 
Plus i have been looking for a good vag specialist in essex and had not even heard of sani's motors so i will give them a call on some work i want done 

[Rippers]

Cheers mate, it's been a fun project. 
There's always things I want, bigger brakes, some nasty rust appearing that needs sorting. Other than that I hope I'm done. But then there's always ko4 !!

Hey Dr.
Is ther a little sensor or meter that sticks out on your AC compressor
that now sits so close to the Radiator that even an electric fan will not fit there?

Hi mate, did you comment on the wrong thread? 

[ConorGTI]

Stunning car mate! @Rippers I have the same
Have you thought about a rear wiper delete? Supposedly an easy mod and looks cool!

Thanks for the kind comment mate. I have considered it but not yet got round to it.

Do you have a thread? I'd love to see yours. 

[ConorGTI]

No problem! I don't actually i'll put a few pictures together tomorrow!
Here's one after a wash the other day! Only just started modding need more haha.


Quick interior shot (same gear stick as you )
