Here it is.











So far i have fitted a set of FK coilovers, forge 007p recirc valve, k&n 57i induction kit, Powdercoated wheels anthracite, JVC Double DIN DVD headunit, JBL sub and amp, Random assortment of stickers and since the pics i've had the front plate recess smoothed.

Much more to come! ;D

Love the wheels! i want some

[Dub_Dan]

looks lovely mate was this not for sale ?

[drennan]

much did you pay to have the recess smoothed?

[Harney]

Cheers for the good comments. Will get some pics up this weekend of the smooth front end. Been meaning to do get some for ages for other forums.
The wheels are the standard gti wheels made by ronal. You can probably get replicas nowadays.
And I hope it wasn't for sale haha!

[Harney]

Oh and I had the recess done as a Christmas present at my dads garage but the lad said it would cost alot more than it's worth but I supose that's his opinion lol

[dood9n3]

Nice car mate
Please post a pic of your intake

[Harney]

Ok mate will get one for you this weekend when i've cleaned it and get some pics of the smoothing

[chris meardon]

Lol, i meant the colour not the wheels.

might look good on my white gti

[drennan]

Nice man! I very much likeee. Hope its worth it mines goin in nxt wk 4 sum smoothing number pl8 recess included. Howd u stik ur plate on now tho? Heard of ppl usn thy double sided suckers. Patiantly awaiting ur weekend pics

[Harney]

Oh right haha, yeh would look smart on a white one i think!

And its well worth it! looks alot nicer with the plate off and it all nice and smooth. What other bits are you having smoothed?
And i made two L shape brackets which screw into the lower grill so its just a case of unscrewing it for shows and screwing it back on for the drive home saves messing around with sticky tabs!

[drennan]

all the bump strips front side rear and the plate recess and my wheels done the same colour as the car, as they are brilliant white the now coz of the powdercoating and I want them candy white yes maybe I'l need to make up a wee bracket there was a guide on here on ones bought fron B&Q either that or has anyone used these?

Cool! should look sweet! was tempted to do all the bump strips aswell but didnt know how it would look (can sometimes look too plain)
Yeh i just found two brackets in the garage, araldite'd them onto the plate and put two small holes through the top slat of the lower grill. got it so it sits slighthly over the grill so it doesnt restrict air flow but you can see the smoothing. Dont know if id be keen on them suction cups they always seem to fall off unless they're the big lever ones like on sat navs.

[drennan]

yes that was my thoughts aswel that they mite come lose n my plate wil fall of bt it was a few ppl said thy wer usn thum

[Harney]

I dunno then, might be worth a try.
Ill try and get a couple of pics tonight when i get home and then get some nice clean ones at the weekend. that way you can see the brackets i've done and have a sneek peek at the bumper
