Long overdue but got me coilovers fitted thanks to some help from a mate. Air guns ftw lol.

Got some 20mm spacers for the rear but the bolts arnt quite long enough for them to take so waiting for payday to get some even longer ones lol hopefully that should sort the stance out a bit. Front coilovers are wound all the way down and backs have a bit left on them. Car is carrying some weight in the boot so the stance aint great lol also im not the photographer i just point and click so am waiting for me flat mate to get back to take some proper pics

















Also finally got me mats come through from VW so heres some little OE goodness



Comments etc all welcome

I was buzzing over my new mats when I got mine too lol

Looks spot on Andy! I was gonna say the back needed to come up a bit, but it should look ok once your junk is outta your trunk haha

took the stuff out today still undecided will take another pic later. i do like a bit of rake on the front so mite have the backs up a thread or 2

I thought it was very hard to get gti mats nowadays? Did you get them from main dealer?

Looks nice lower dude

tidy leather that...how many miles have you done now?

I got my mats in May from VW dealer, had to wait a day or two for them to come but that was it! I can try hunt down the part numbers if you want?

Looks Great Andy much better now its been dropped on coilovers

It will look even better with the spacers on the rear

In reply to godderz just went to me dealership explained what i wanted. Guy there said it would have to go through on special order and i would have to pay in advance and they would let me know if they could get their hands on any. Took about 2 weeks and cost 30£ ill have a hunt for the invoice i think it has the part numbers on there.

Heh i think the leather is a bit tatty especially on the drivers bolster. Think the people who has the car before me threw themselves into it lol. I need to look into cleaning it and see if i can bring it up a bit better just waiting on funds for that. Car is on about 92k now and still going strong.

Yeah cant wait to get the spacers on was gutted when they didn't fit with the longer bolts, even though they fit fine onto me GT with the same wheels, spacers and bolts bit weird tbh. Was thinking where to get them from if anyone knows any good places please drop us a link.

also am thinking of using the bolts on the rear and maybe putting some 5 or 10mm spacers on the front to bring the fronts about a bit.

Get paid on friday so hopefully will be ordering/buying:

Piping for the grill again. Don't think i will get red as it seems a bit played out am thinking of something a bit different if i can get my hands on it. Am still searching for colour inspiration though so if anyone has any ideas please drop em in
Long bolts as said for the wheels
Primer, Paint and clear coat. Am thinking of doing me badges black, and still need some paint for the doorcards in the GT
Also if a few bits i have for sale go through possible a bonnet respray as some of the stone chips are just stupid.

Really appreciate the comments, means a lot to know that my work is appreciated.

Hopefully some fancy pictures to follow so stay tuned

Coilovers ftw dude LOOKS GOOD............

What stretch u running tyre wise dude???

Iv got 175/50/15s and it rubs round corners, iv got 20mm spacers up front and 25mm rear..............

165/55 on a 7j wheel mate

decided on a color for me grill piping and possibly other bits.

Did some one say


?

Silver and purple work really well in my opinion. That was my first idea until I stumbled across daytona grey lol.

Where you getting your piping from?

well haha now you ask that. Ive looked around but cant really find any piping or tape in that color. Im waiting for an email off a company to see whether they can do it.

If not ill try to get a white/silver one and see how it sprays up. Ive got a good idea how to do it if i need to spray so hopefully will be ok. Just working on some photochops atm of possibly doing the splitter and brake calipers. Just ideas at the moment though.
