My GTi
« on: September 10, 2009, 02:42:17 pm »
orite people

ive only just signed upto the site

here is my gti, pics were taken the morning after i picked it up and  lad had been using it before i picked it up and i also had a 70mile trip home so it looks filthy, i picked it up last thursday night

gave it a good clean on the friday night and gave the leather inside a good clean and got it looking alot lot better than in the pics, also had to spend a good 20/30 minutes jsut on the exhaust as it hadnt been cleaned propperly but got it shinning and gleaming again but this was after these pics aswell

pics after a full detail with my kestral etc will follow but these will do for now









cheers for looking, its got all the usual extras then its been fully colour coded and has a parrot blue tooth kit in aslo

loving it at the minute especially compared to my previous 1.2 sxi+ corsa c  lol

all comments welcome

Its a shark fin antenna and you have to under go a lot of work to fit them to a Golf. the early models had them i think and the top spec stereo has various types of these.
Fitting means swapping the base out which means dropping the roof lining. Possible but messy.  :sad1:

Rear bumper + Diffuser looks the dogs mate, I'm going to go for that shortly when I have some spare cash.

Same colour as mine so I'm a big fan  :happy2:
