im sure your mate has put a lot of work and money into it but it screams one word to me and thats CHAV!!!
Sorry mate its not my cup of tea and i dont think it will be many other peoples either.
If he does decide to keep it tell him to change the alloys they really dont suit the car

I like the seats.....
...but can I ask what engine you have in it to justify 10 exhaust pipes and bonnet vents?

I would have personally saved that money and bought either a previous shape RS4, M3, early M5, DB7...etc

am sure he didn't mean it was chavvy.
it looks good, but not really subtle like more poeple on here like.
the car looks spot on though what he's done, and i'm guessing no expence has benn spared.
i love the seats though.
not at all a fan of the exhausts though

Please don't take offence but I just don't believe that comment.
35k is a hell of a lot of money to spend to make the car look like that, if it does 0-60 in 5 seconds then maybe just maybe his money hasn't been a total waste?

I can see where he's going with the look.
From the front it would look nice if the bonnet was smooth, the mesh black and possibly the grill bars black.
not keen on the back at all, sorry
what does it sound like?!

looks very low is it on air ride,
fair play to the lad he's doing his own thing. if he likes it then allsgood!
not to everyone taste but, it would be crap if we all follow the smooth,euro dub look all the time looks like he's put a lot of money and time in to it
i think the exustd are a bit mad like but hey
but i cant see no were near the 35k he put in to it and the paint at £450 liter seems a bit OD I'm a painter just don't see the point
keep it up

The list is endless as to what has been done to the car the paint as someone asked was imported from america hence the price the body kit was ment for a mk4 golf and has been modified to fit. the suspention has been removed and is now air ride the interior has been fully re trimmed including new carpet throughout and and mats to match the seats the exhausts have been made by powerflow they were made that way to draw attention love them or not u noticed them extended speaker door pods to take audiobahn speakers flip out screen up front and 7 monitors in various places with freeview tv built in i cud go on if he wantad an m3 or an m5 he wud have got one but he already has a toyota supra, honda prelude and unfortunatly a ford mondeo and only being 21 years old i think hes doing alrite for him self

1.4 16v at the moment but either a polo gti turbo or a 20v turbo engine is on the cards soon.

what's special about the paint? I think it needs some tyre dressing and better pictures, those photos aren't the best - then it might look a bit better.
