There is some small niggly bits that will need doing first passenger seal has taken a beating being so low drivers side pillar has a couple dents and back quater has a small dent front bumper has a small scratch this will all be resprayed :)

Aero Wipers
Bonnet Bra
Currently has Gmaxx Coilovers lowered around 70mm
Pipercross induction kit more than likely coming off

Bought it this evening id like to say a BIG THANKYOU to Endi_GTi who came and viewed the car with me. Great friend who looked over the car with me and used his vag com to give it a little check. Great laugh to travel with and Maccy ds eating champion !

Very Nice Mate :)

Matt said his mate had just bought a GTI so i'm glad you have started a new thread

As for the wheels you cant go wrong with Ronal's or BBS really, my favourites for the GTI are the Ronal LS rims though :)
I have a set of 16" RXII's for sale at the moment if they take your fancy http://www.uk-polos.net/view ... 11&t=54028

Soooooooooooooooo...... Just been tinkering with the gti today adding little things which most people have done :)

Red trim around the grill and some wolfsburg surrounds ready for stamped plates from dubshack dan :)

The badge was black and i will more than likely buy a new oem one later on but when i went to wet and dry the badge back to give it a lick of paint but after spitting some paint on by accident i thought it looked cool so just messed about with it instead :) also liked the imprint on the table after i sprayed it haha

Image

The engine bay was looking abit sorry for himself as it had an induction kit jammed on the top so i have put the oem air box and gti surround back on and temp put the induction pipe back on :) also got to tempted to spit some paint on the lead cover and give the leads a lil clean

Image

THE BIG EXPENSE OF THE WEEKEND WOULD BE THE NEW WHEELS COMING 15INCH ..... I COULDNT TELL YOU UNTIL THERE BACK FROM THE PAINT SHOP VERY EXCITED AND ENDI GTI IF YOU MENTION WHAT THEY ARE I WILL TAKE MY BONNET BRA BACK AND WELD ALL YOUR DOORS SHUT ! :)
