Wow that is one RED  lip you have there!  :happy2:

Interior mod? How about a brushed aluminium ashtray lid? Really brightens that area up a treat!  :happy2:

Nice GTi ! :smiley:

I'm not a huge fan of black and red rims.


I like the black badge at the front though  :happy2:

Looks good matey, I think I preferred it when the lip had a red pinstripe round the edge rather than the whole dish being red  :happy2:

Lovely motor. The red rim reminds me of the R-gt that was made as a design car a year or so ago. Lovely :happy2:
Golf R gone.

I'd get some smoked indicators for the wing mirrors.  Would finish the red/black look off nicely.

good idea

Any ideas where i could get them veedub for a good price,

also do u think if i put a light tint on the indicators that would be cheaper option and would that work

also what about do u think about putting gun smoke lamin-x on headlights.

also i took red centre caps from wheels, do u think it looks better or not

the wheels look smart  :happy2: they just look too small and fat for some reason?  :confused:

It could be because im not low enough
and the offset of wheels are 40 so the wheels are flush with arches and as a result you see all of the sidewall of tyres.

I want to go lower and swap my eibach prokit springs for h&r sport springs but i think i tyres will catch the arches.

This is a front view..


do u think i will be ok if i put h&R sport springs or will i have to stretch tyres like americans do
i have 225/40/18 falkens on at the moment but if i put 215/40/18 will i get any stretch and also if i do the inside screw mod will i have enough clearence.

sorry for long post :happy2:
