Looks loads better now...still prefer the OEM front splitter though...never been a big fan of aftermarket body work.

Looking good mate now the skirts are on, and the body coloured look works well!  Hows the Zorst bedding in?  Still sounding as good?

hi mate
 i got the lm reps off guy on here robkn i believe.
yeah they are 19s. but in hindsight ,that wonderful thing i would have gone with 18s so i can get a better size tyre cos altho i oouve the stretched look, its a pain keeping my eye out for potholes etc and i dont feel i can reaaly chuck it around like i did with the 17 monzas to be honest!
18s will be on soon as i can afford some rubber!
matsu

The 18's will be on alot quicker when you get the cash from selling me the LM's  :wink:

What suspension set up have you got?

The L.E.D rear light's look great with the black paint. Are they from that ''bigger golf'' plus i think they call it ?. I saw one in the car prk the other day & they looked the same.

The golf plus lights are a different size, these are specific for the MK5 the UK dealers just decided they didnt want them, so they are OEM European and US.  Which means you need to switch the fog and reverse light over to make them UK spec.
