Luke's mk5 Jetta
« on: January 12, 2014, 04:21:04 pm »
Hi guys, thought I would introduce myself a bit and stick some photos up of my car;

Got it at the start of 2012 as a standard 1.6fsi Jetta SE. (It was between this and the 1.9tdi, unfortunately insurance was the decider, being literally twice as much on the diesel)



2 weeks after i got the car id put a US grille on the front, Coilovers on, and a set of 18x8&9 TSW Holstens



I had always planned to put the car on air, but obviously that took a bit of saving so I stuck the coil overs on as a temp measure.

This is how the car now stands, full Airlift V2 kit, GTI interior, 18x8 ABT A10 split rims.



Ive got a few bits planned before UD in march so ill update on here as and when they're done!
