Black GTi
« on: June 10, 2012, 05:42:15 pm »
Hi everyone thought I'd post up my gti that I've owned a few months now.

This is my car when I bought it, it's lowered on Eibach springs and got a bluefin remap



Since owning it I've fitted the updated diverter valve, 19" bbs ch reps, xenon headlights, and a full service

Also detailed it over the weekend with meguires microfiber correction system followed by black fire gloss enhancing polish and fk1000 hi-temp wax then took a few pics








And a scenic shot lol



My future plans is KO4 upgrade, r32 rear lights, r32 front brakes, full exhaust system when funds allow

Your car looks lovely I do feel that R32 lights look the nuts on a black GTI.  (I'm biased though)

I need to post pics of my car.  I do love my car.  Been too busy driving it.  It needs a wash but kind of like it dirty!  Need to detail it to do the car justice.
3 Door GTI Black, Cruise Control, DSG, Factory Tints, Folding Mirrors, Heated Seats, Highline Display, Leather, Monza II's, MFSW, Parking Sensors, Puddle Lights,  Xenons,

To be fitted....Bluetooth,DVB-T, MDI, RNS510, Stage one (opinions much appreciated)
