Good to meet you Dan.
I think this will look smart with the grill, wheels and drop.

Good to meet you too, it should look good once all done, I just need to try and not go so mad like I did on my Vectra lol.

Take one normal car...





Then a couple of years later with lots of bits changed too many times cos I couldn't make up my mind and it was like this...







Then return to standard sell on...buy a Skoda vRS which turned out to be a shed.....then bought the Golf lol

Nice start on the Golf, you don't hang around, eh? Very interested in this as its the identical route I wanna go down soon. GTI front bumper, half colour-coded rear gti valance with GTI pipes, colour-coded skirts, wheels are a must then finally, a decent drop.  :happy2:

Will be keeping an eye to see how you get on. Would be extremely useful if you could post up any part numbers you come across or use to order stuff.  :smiley:

Whats a golf sport, I thought they only did a GT Sport in the diesels.  It has a Golf S interior, a different colour centre console and no aircon.  What engine is it?  I do like the seats though.

Nice golf, should look good once bumpers are on.  :happy2:

Sport just refers to the trim, superior to S and SE. Just meant it came with a few extras over the S and SE eg the silver trim bits on the doors and glove box, sports seats, colour coded body bumpers, think it's slightly lower too but not sure...

Details can be found in here if you're interested:

Been a while since I was last on due illnesses and then losing interest in my car, but now trying to get myself back into it again lol.

Took my car to Jampsort Monday morning and had my car remapped, not the cheapest remap around but had the best gains etc so its now up another 50bhp which makes it around 190bhp with a shed load more torque, and I must say it really pulls and revs now, just need to start uprating some bits and bobs on the car and then I'll look at hybrid turbos and push that figure up even more.

A few pics from Monday.











And yesterday I bought some 18 inch Audi OEM BBS CH's so looking forward to those arriving.

Massive thanks to jon-tfsi as within 24 hours of buying some wheels off him they arrived  :happy2:

So me being me had to get them on to see what they look like on lol, my car is filthy and needs lowering quite badly now too, but will get the wheels off again soon and get them refurbed like new.
