Title: guest mod/articles section?
Post by: Overseer on 21 November 2003, 14:13
not sure how well this would work..  but i'm thinking since most people here seem to be doing mod's to their cars that some step by step guides to mods/maintenace etc might help..

it would draw people to the site if they're looking at doing things, and help give people ideas for mod's to do... (i have a growing list of 9 i'm thinkin about right now.. 1 or 2 some might make good material)

i had a look int he features section, and the only one i found was "Fitting guide: mk3 rear lights"

whatcha think?

yeah would be a good idea, ukmk4 site has been a help to me, they have some good how to pages!!, step by step with photos!! think it would take a bit of setting up but hey if it draws more members its got to be a good thing!!! golfgti.co.uk is spreading at an alarming rate!! spread the word! ;D

Who says i'm a small guy? Modulator certainly isn't, he's a very big boy, mr shady seems to like cussing him. NOT a very sensible idea, as Mr.Mod has got an extremely short fuse..

Post by: richandhazel on 26 November 2003, 07:31
It did go well, good to meet you guys.
Making it a Sunday, daytime, next time sounds like an excellent idea. Hopefully can get a few more to come along including golfvr6, vr6chick, vr6junior? and mod.

Pictures aren't too great I'm afraid, wet night and old digi camera don't mix too well. I'll see what I can do to improve them and post them later today.

I am reminded of the movie "spaceballs" when Rick Moranis is in the light sabre fight scene. :)


On of my Mate is 6'9" and it is funny as hell watching him fold up into my Golf. I have a hard enough time with 6'2" some nights. :)
