Black and blue together look very smart  :notworthy:

You're doing a lot of mods all at once!

Are the road surfaces better out there than they used to be? I hope so! Though to be fair it was down south where they were bad, back many years ago.

Is "LJ" Ljubljana? - Must be.

All this parts were bought during a winter time. month after month, not all at once. I don't have so much money. hehe
Yes , LJ means , Ljubljana, capital city of Slovenia.
And the roads are still bad. But what can we do :confused:

Yes we installed gewinds yesterday, so i cant wait tomorrow morning, i will put rims on..

Looks nice that does mate,
Did you fit the parts yourself and how do the prices for parts fare overseas compared to UK prices>

hi

yes i did installed parts myself.  And about prices is funny thing,except  bumpers that cost ( front ed30 and rear r32) 700€ , all other things were ordered from UK or Germany.
In Slovenia parts are more expencive. So it is better if i order from Uk or De.


Mark

The blue trim i have painted in to the same color as rims.And the dsg knob, u can find at your local vw dealer, or alsow on ebay.


offtopic...
Does any one know why i can't read my personal messages?

If you read the site rules, you have to reach a minimum number of posts before you can see PMs.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.
