Title: Mk3 Project :)
Post by: GolfMk3Ben on 05 March 2011, 13:30
Bought this car as a 1.4L ,,
Came with the gti body kit , gay mirrors , a set of uni wheels , and a few other odds and sods
The previous owner had mullered literally every bolt , and rounded loads , chopped up the head unit wires , same with the doors speakers so i had to re do all the electrics but now theres a sub,amp,head unit and speakers all round ..
Heres what it looked like when i bought it

Since then ive replaced the mirrors , changed the wheels , put coilovers on , and also split my sump on a pothole  :sad: ,, soo as soon as the sumps repaired/replaced ill be back to getting it the way i want it :)

This is how it looks atm , spose 13" werent the best for the sump

Next plans are to get my arches flared towards the end of the month and get the trim colour coded to the car , and a de wipered boot
