well i been after a 6n for ages now since before i started driving and after owning a mk3 squareback and then a mk2 golf i finally got my hands on one! not had it that long and got it completely standard so i set the ball rolling with a set of coilovers (evo), wheels (rh cups), respray (needed a dew bits tidying up but had handles coded and roof painted black while it was there), mk5 rears, and some stereo bits......hope you all approve!

think the back needs to come down a bit more, and the front only a tiny bit and possibly 10mm spacers at rear!!

wish i could put a black roof on mine, thay look sick!!!

keep it up

Welcome to the other side!!! LOL!!

Someone was toyin with the idea on a MK5, I think it was Stani(sorry if Im wrong) but only had a photoshop, I have to say looks much better with the finished article. His was silver too if I remember rightly.
