The golf is a 1996 2.0 8v GTI 5 door mystic blue   
this is how the golf looked the day after i picked it up and gave it a dam good clean the citreon number plates were the first things to come off



so far i have done very minor mods


SS straight threw pipe to magnex back box

front and rear GTI  badges removed ( need new ones )
lower bumper air vents

future plans are

oem 16" Vw or audi wheels

induction kit install

i have mounted the filter different than the piper guide told me to normaly the induction kit sits over the alternator next to the engine were mucho muchos!!  heat is so i decided to trim the rear of the head light remove all the OEM air box parts which are in wing and place the air filter next to a wide open gap which gives it cold air this set i have found to be the best.
