Well lads been a while since I've updated this.

Picked up a smoothed grill



Then had a run in with the cops for no front plate landing me a ticket



Picked up a cheap RNS510 rep from china, works great but menu's look a bit crap!



Sold the CH's and stuck the 17''s back on





Picked up a set of Monza 2's



And this is how she sits atm,  just got a fresh mot so coilovers are going to be wound down asap!

looking good mate.

Thanks Shaun believe it or not browsing through your thread earlier made me get the finger out and update mine.  Yours looks a stunning example and i'm going to try and set up my XYZ coilovers to a very similar height to yours in this pic.  I have also toyed with Alphards but every other 17 year old has them on a clapped out mk4 Golf/Leon/Toledo/Jetta etc etc over here in Northern Ireland and they have a certain stigma attached to them because of this lol.

I will have a set someday though lol your GTI is stunning they are a lovely rim.

Quick question did you have any rubbing issues at this height ??
