Cheers JV :)

Right I have a lot of catching up to as I got this car July 2011 and only just got round to starting a project thread now!  :laugh:

It is a 53 plate, GT TDI 150, ARL Engine, LC9Z Black Magic paint code, and had 55000 miles on it when I got it :)

And basically standard.

So here's some pictures of it when I got it! :)

October 1st 2011.

Decided the brakes looked a bit bland so got the red paint out and spent a weekend giving them a good painting! :)



Then some Angel Eye headlights came up on ebay for good money so I grabbed them too!

Replaced all 20 sidelights with camera flash L.E.D's, this was the outcome!





I was happy with the outcome! :)

Another Ebay bargain, this time a Simota Induction kit, got it for £40, retails more towards £200!

Got that fitted as soon as it arrived!





Gives the derv a sexy turbo spool  :rolleyes:

Missed this little beaut out! Oops!

Fitted a THS decat pipe, well worth the money!

Gets rid of the horrid cat, louder spool, less lag! Win, Win, Win.



Also fitted a Sportex oval back box, went for oval to be different, still not sure if I was keen.

April 7th 2012.

Got back from Belgium to be greeted with a set of coilovers!

Lows on a Golf is a must in my opinion!

None of this monster truck business anymore ;)



Firm ride, but well worth it!

Some time that I can't remember..haha

Realised I put Wind deflectors on at some point!

Cheap and easy mod, I like them!



Then I took it upon myself to put a black suade headliner in!

With a couple of helpers, and three attempts down the line..







And the finished article :)

Time to change the front end!

Was tempted by an anni kit but in the end I just love the R32 look.

So here we go, the test fit! :)







Pretty good fit! So away to get it painted! :)





Much prefer it now! :)
