Banham's MK5 Gee Tea Eye
« on: June 02, 2012, 04:47:30 pm »
Finally after having my Golf MK5 GT TDI for just over a year i managed to get myself a GTI. Only had it just over a month but have done a few mods and swapped over what was on my GT. Loving the GTI feels great to drive but the only thing that is going to take getting use to is the 320miles on the dash when im used to seeing 530  :sad1: but when my foot goes down all is forgotten  :evilgrin:

This is my old GT




The Current GTI spec:

18" BBS VZ
R32 Brakes Front and rear
Forge Twintake
RNS-510
Xenons with auto level
Headlight washers
Heated washer jets
Rear Footwell lights
Highline
MFSW
Magnet front licence plate
Smoked side repeaters
LED interior & exterior and a few other little mods.
Door Warning lights
Boot Pop


Currently modding my engine cover because it wont fit on with the twintake so going to hopfully spray that this weekend

After i come back off holiday i will be ordering a body kit and getting everything colour coded to tie it in nicely.

Here a few (Iphone) pics









Comments/criticism welcome  :happy2:

Looks good but you need to drop the car's suspension.

I totally agree with the suspension comments  :ashamed: Cant decide on wether to get coilovers or springs. Waiting to finish the body kit to see how much i have left over  :smiley:

Update time!!

This weekend i took a visit up to Eddie NL to get Xenons with Auto leveling, Headlight washers, Heated washer jets and cruise control fitted  :party:
A massive THANK YOU to Eddie who fitted everything. Cant fault his work he makes sure the smallest thing is fitted perfect  :notworthy: Even with a few problems managed to overcome them. Thanks to VW for supplying the wrong part even telling them i had a GTI and my reg but my fault as i should of checked when i got them  :ashamed:

A couple of quick pics i took (excuse the squished bugs on the front)
 




Future mods:

Body kit plus colour coded
Exhaust
Coilovers
Rear wheel spacers
