Carbon Wrapped Mk5
« on: December 30, 2011, 04:50:00 pm »
Hi Guys
Been a while since I've been on so thought I'd post a few pics of one of the latest rides, a Mk5 GT TDI 170 in white and black carbon top half. Had owned this for a couple of months, then sold to a friend recently and he wanted a carbon itch scratching!
So here's a sample:

Don't like it.  :sick:  All that carbon wrapping just makes it weigh more.

Not to my taste but each to their own. It's only the guys daily, he's also building a 550bhp mk1 TT which will be displaying some real carbon.

More info though is we have some real carbon bonnets and spoilers etc for the mk5 and 6 if anyone's interested?

Can be done easily, just depends if you wanted aesthetics or lightweight 100% carbon. Will post details soon
