I like the idea of spraying a Mk5 R32 grille black but dare I say I absolutely detest those Bentleys on any Golf. A Golf is too small a car to carry it off, IMO.

Oh gosh! I'm really sorry to have mentioned it twice - I honestly had forgotten. It doesn't matter what I think anyway - All that matters is that you like them  :happy2:

Dial in all the available neg camber on the rears and get the front arches rolled ever so slightly (backs at the same time actually to get symmetry), get some 225 section tyres on and jobs a good 'un.

Well that's what I'd do/recommend. Could go as far as getting some front strut adjustable camber mounts but they are pricey. Failing that like you mentioned, dump the hell out of it on bags!!!  :laugh:

I think the bentley rollers look good as this is more about show than go which I think people are missing slightly as this forum favours speed over polishing. Everyone has his/her vision of what a car should be like based on their own, makes it 10x worse when we all have golfs or similar

Have the same bentleys as you and wasn't sure if I should have them polished or powdercoated.

Making me think polished now!!!

Keep the grill chrome though, looks better that way

Very nice! Interlagos cloth is very durable and very 'GTI'. Having leather side bolsters is a bonus.

[At last I found something nice to say about your car and didn't mention Bentley wheels]  :laugh:
